MIPT male iron pipe thread on the outer end mates with FIPT female iron pipe thread on the inner end, allowing inline size reduction without cutting or welding. PVDF is a high-performance thermoplastic that resists a broad range of aggressive chemicals, making this bushing suitable for demanding fluid handling applications. Licensed plumbers and industrial pipefitters are the typical installers for this fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in Schedule 80 plastic piping systems where a reduction from 1 inch to 1\/2 inch is required. Common applications include chemical processing lines, water treatment systems, industrial plumbing, and laboratory fluid distribution where chemical resistance and pressure rating matter. PVDF construction makes it appropriate for use with acids, bases, and many solvents that would degrade standard PVC or CPVC fittings. The flush bushing profile sits within the hub of the mating fitting, keeping the assembly compact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVDF material provides strong chemical resistance for aggressive fluid handling environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 pressure rating suitable for demanding industrial and commercial piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush bushing design seats inside the mating fitting for a compact, low-profile connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIPT x FIPT threaded end connections allow tool-based installation without solvent cement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM D3222 standard for PVDF plastic pipe and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for Schedule 80 PVDF threaded piping systems with 1-inch to 1\/2-inch reduction requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter following applicable IPC guidelines. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before removing any existing fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant rated for use with PVDF and the conveyed fluid — do not use sealants that may degrade the plastic. Avoid over-torquing threaded plastic fittings, as excess force can crack the bushing body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flush Threaded Reducer Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 x 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIPT x FIPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM D3222\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CE03290\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541243134258,"sku":"CE03290","price":101.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e82f0a184429ed22835b078a376f4ff4_97eb3535-4522-4672-b7af-b46bdc0d3bac.jpg?v=1785870608","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-ce03290-pvdf-reducer-bushing-1x0-5in-sch-80-mipt-fipt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
