Value Collection 15283 Pvc Reducing Coupling 3/4x1/2 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 15283 is a Schedule 40 PVC reducing coupling with slip ends, designed to connect a 3/4-inch pipe to a 1/2-inch pipe in a single fitting. It provides a reliable, solvent-weld joint between two different pipe diameters in low-pressure water distribution and irrigation systems. The Schedule 40 wall thickness makes it suitable for standard residential and light commercial plumbing applications. Plumbers and irrigation technicians install this fitting as part of piping transitions where a line steps down from 3/4 inch to 1/2 inch supply.

This reducing coupling is used in residential water supply lines, irrigation manifolds, and light commercial plumbing systems where a pipe diameter reduction is required inline. The slip-end configuration accepts standard Schedule 40 PVC pipe on both ends for a solvent-cemented connection. It is commonly installed in potable water distribution, sprinkler laterals, and general-purpose cold-water piping systems where PVC is a code-approved material choice.

Key Features

• Reduces from 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch pipe diameter in a single inline fitting
• Schedule 40 PVC construction for standard pressure-rated service
• Slip ends accept solvent-cement joining on both sides
• Lightweight design at 0.01 pounds per unit
• UNSPSC Code 40175300 for procurement and sourcing systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting compatible with Schedule 40 PVC pipe in 3/4-inch and 1/2-inch nominal sizes per ASTM D1785 specifications for residential and light commercial plumbing and irrigation systems.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or qualified irrigation technicians. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting or joining pipe. Clean and prime both pipe ends and fitting sockets before applying PVC solvent cement, following the cement manufacturer's cure time before pressurizing. Refer to local plumbing codes and ASTM D2564 guidelines for solvent-cementing procedures on PVC systems.
