Value Collection 401-102 Pvc Reducing Tee 3/4x3/4x1 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 401-102 is a Schedule 40 PVC reducing tee designed for joining and redirecting flow in low-pressure plastic piping systems. With run connections at 3/4 inch and a branch outlet at 1 inch, this fitting allows a larger branch line to tie into a smaller run — a common configuration in irrigation laterals, residential plumbing distribution, and light commercial water supply rough-in. All three ends are slip-socket connections, accepting solvent-cement bonding with standard PVC primer and cement. Licensed plumbers and irrigation contractors are the primary installers. The fitting weighs 0.11 pounds, making it easy to handle in tight spaces during rough-in work.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial cold-water supply, irrigation manifold assemblies, and drainage applications where Schedule 40 PVC is code-approved. The all-slip end configuration is the standard for solvent-welded PVC systems and is compatible with Schedule 40 slip fittings and pipe in the same nominal sizes. No threaded adapters or transition fittings are required when working in an all-PVC slip environment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified irrigation technicians following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure fully before cutting into any existing line. Clean and deburr pipe ends before applying PVC primer and solvent cement per the manufacturer instructions on the cement container. Do not apply force to the joint until cure time is complete, and do not use this fitting with CPVC, ABS, or threaded-only systems without appropriate transition fittings.
