End connections are Slip (spigot) on the male end and Female Iron Pipe Thread (FIPT) on the female end. The PVC construction resists corrosion and is well suited for low-pressure water distribution, irrigation, and drain applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this bushing when transitioning between pipe sizes in a PVC system without introducing metal fittings into the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, irrigation manifolds, and pool or spa piping where a size reduction from 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch is needed within a Schedule 40 PVC assembly. The Slip outlet accepts standard 1\/2 inch PVC pipe for solvent-welding, while the FIPT end threads directly into a 1-1\/2 inch female-threaded fitting or valve body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 1-1\/2 inch FIPT port to 1\/2 inch slip outlet in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 PVC construction for standard-pressure plumbing and irrigation service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlip x FIPT end connections allow solvent-weld on the outlet side and threaded make-up on the inlet side\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCorrosion-resistant PVC material eliminates galvanic issues in mixed-material systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.42 pounds per unit, minimizing load on threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for Schedule 40 PVC piping systems using standard 1-1\/2 inch FIPT and 1\/2 inch slip connections per ASTM D2466 dimensional standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters following local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off water supply and depressurize the line before making up any connections. Apply an approved PVC primer and solvent cement to the slip end per the cement manufacturer instructions; thread the FIPT end with PTFE tape or pipe thread sealant rated for PVC. Do not over-torque the threaded connection, as PVC threads can crack under excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slip x FIPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.42 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 438-209\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51718252757298,"sku":"438-209","price":27.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/78b4cce12dee3b1048a2890047694628.jpg?v=1788551212","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-438-209-pvc-pipe-bushing-1-5x0-5-in-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
