Value Collection 15284 Pvc Reducing Coupling 1 to 1-1/2 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 15284 is a Schedule 40 PVC reducing coupling designed to connect pipe sections of two different diameters in a single inline fitting. It transitions from a 1-inch pipe to a 1-1/2-inch pipe using slip-style ends on both sides, making it a standard solution for drain, waste, vent, and cold-water distribution lines. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides the pressure and impact resistance expected in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers, though experienced DIYers working on low-pressure water systems also use this fitting type.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a pipe diameter change is needed along a straight run. Slip-end connections are solvent-welded using standard PVC primer and cement, making this fitting appropriate for potable cold-water supply, irrigation laterals, drain lines, and pool plumbing where Schedule 40 PVC is the specified material. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

Key Features

• Reduces from 1-inch to 1-1/2-inch pipe in a single inline fitting
• Slip-end connections on both sides for solvent-weld installation
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure plumbing applications
• Lightweight PVC construction resistant to corrosion and chemical degradation
• Compact form factor fits tight installations with minimal clearance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for Schedule 40 PVC pipe systems using 1-inch and 1-1/2-inch nominal pipe sizes with slip-end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and fully drain the affected line before cutting and fitting. Clean and deburr pipe ends, apply PVC primer, then solvent-weld with compatible PVC cement, allowing full cure time before pressurizing. Do not use this fitting on hot-water supply lines or systems requiring CPVC or ABS-rated materials.
