Value Collection 437-289 Pvc Pipe Bushing 2.5x1 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 437-289 is a Schedule 40 PVC pipe bushing designed to reduce a 2.5-inch pipe or fitting down to a 1-inch connection. It features a spigot (spig) end on the larger side and a slip socket on the smaller end, allowing it to seat directly into a standard socket-end fitting. Manufactured from PVC, this bushing is suited for cold and ambient-temperature water supply, irrigation, and drain applications where a threaded reduction is not required. At 0.35 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle on the job site. Plumbers and irrigation technicians are the primary installers.

This bushing is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, irrigation mainlines, and pool or spa plumbing where a pipe diameter reduction is needed between a 2.5-inch and 1-inch line. The spig x slip configuration integrates cleanly into solvent-weld PVC assemblies without the need for additional adapters. Typical install locations include branch takeoffs, manifold assemblies, and equipment connections on pump systems.

Key Features

• Reduces 2.5-inch pipe or fitting to a 1-inch connection in a single fitting
• Schedule 40 PVC construction rated for standard-pressure cold-water and irrigation service
• Spigot x slip end connections for direct integration into socket-weld assemblies
• Solvent-weld installation — no threads to strip, no mechanical joints required
• Lightweight at 0.35 pounds for easy single-hand installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with Schedule 40 PVC socket-end fittings and pipe in 2.5-inch and 1-inch nominal sizes following standard solvent-weld assembly methods.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified irrigation technicians. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting into any existing line. Apply a compatible PVC primer followed by Schedule 40 PVC solvent cement to both the spigot end and the receiving socket per the solvent cement manufacturer instructions and applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Do not use this fitting on hot-water lines or systems exceeding the pressure rating of Schedule 40 PVC.
