Value Collection 15257 Pvc Pipe Bushing 1 X 1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 15257 is a PVC plastic pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-inch pipe connection down to a 1/2-inch line. This fitting uses a spigot by slip end connection, allowing it to seat into a socket fitting on one end while accepting a slip connection on the other. Constructed from PVC, it is well suited for cold and ambient-temperature water distribution, irrigation, and drain systems where a concentric reduction is needed at a threaded or socketed junction. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters install this type of bushing as part of standard pressure and non-pressure PVC piping assemblies.

This bushing is a common component in residential and light commercial plumbing, pool and spa circulation systems, and irrigation distribution lines. It is used wherever a pipe run transitions from a 1-inch nominal size down to a 1/2-inch nominal size within a socket-based PVC assembly. The spigot end inserts directly into a standard 1-inch slip socket, while the slip end receives a 1/2-inch spigot or pipe end.

Key Features

• Reduces 1-inch pipe connections to 1/2-inch line in a single fitting
• Spigot x slip end connection for straightforward integration into socket-based PVC systems
• PVC construction provides corrosion resistance for water service, irrigation, and pool applications
• Compact form factor fits tight installation spaces
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 1-inch by 1/2-inch spigot x slip PVC piping assemblies in plumbing, irrigation, and pool or spa systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter following local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning any fitting work. Solvent-cement both the spigot and slip connections using PVC primer and appropriate PVC cement per manufacturer instructions and code requirements. Allow full cure time before restoring pressure to the system.
