Pro-source 90380501909 Pvc Reducer Bushing Sch 80 2.5x1.5 in

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 90380501909 is a Schedule 80 PVC reducer bushing designed to transition pipe from a 2-1/2 inch line down to a 1-1/2 inch connection. It features a spigot on the larger end and a socket on the smaller end, allowing it to slip into a standard socket fitting on one side while accepting pipe or a fitting on the other. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure tolerance and impact resistance compared to Schedule 40, making this bushing appropriate for demanding industrial, commercial, and mechanical piping applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in pressure and drainage systems where a reduction in line size is required at a fixed connection point.

This reducer bushing is suited for use in commercial and industrial PVC piping systems where Schedule 80 fittings are specified. Common install scenarios include process piping, chemical distribution lines, irrigation manifolds, and HVAC condensate or hydronic systems that incorporate PVC schedule 80 components. The spigot-by-socket end configuration integrates directly with standard PVC fittings of matching schedule and size without requiring adapters.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure and impact ratings than Schedule 40
• 2-1/2 inch spigot inlet transitions to 1-1/2 inch socket outlet
• Spigot x Socket end connections for direct integration with standard PVC fittings
• Lightweight at 0.41 pounds for easy handling during installation
• Compatible with solvent-cement joining per standard PVC assembly practice

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using 2-1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inch reducer bushings with spigot-by-socket end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working with Schedule 80 PVC systems. Isolate and depressurize the line before cutting or joining any fittings. Use a PVC primer and solvent cement rated for Schedule 80 pipe and fittings, following the cement manufacturer and applicable IPC or ASTM guidelines for cure time before returning the line to service. Do not use heat-based joining methods on PVC fittings.
