Manufactured domestically by Spears Manufacturing, this bushed-style coupling is rated for Schedule 40 and standard wall applications. The fitting measures 4-5\/16 inches in length with a 4 inch diameter and carries a maximum temperature rating of 140 degrees F. It weighs 0.56 pounds and is constructed of white PVC. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in pressure piping systems where a reduction in line size is required without additional adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, irrigation, and industrial process piping systems where SCH 40 PVC pipe transitions between 3 inch and 2-1\/2 inch nominal sizes are needed. The bushed method of manufacture integrates the reduction directly into the coupling body, keeping the fitting compact and eliminating the need for a separate bushing insert. It is appropriate for cold and moderately warm water service within its rated temperature range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 3 inch nominal pipe to 2-1\/2 inch nominal in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSocket end style on both ends for solvent-cement installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSCH 40 and standard wall schedule rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBushed construction — reduction built into the coupling body\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 140 degrees F maximum service temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNSF approved and meets ASTM D1784, ASTM D1785, and ASTM D2466 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestic manufacture — made in the United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for SCH 40 PVC pressure piping systems using 3 inch and 2-1\/2 inch nominal socket-end pipe and fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line before cutting into existing piping. Use a proper PVC primer and solvent cement rated for SCH 40 PVC; follow manufacturer cure times before pressurizing the system.
