It features a Slip (spigot) inlet and a Female Iron Pipe Thread (FIPT) outlet, allowing it to connect a plain-end pipe on one side to a threaded fitting on the other. PVC construction makes it resistant to corrosion and chemical attack, suitable for cold and warm water distribution, irrigation, and drain systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this bushing as a standard reduction fitting in residential and light commercial piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in Schedule 40 PVC piping systems where a pipe or fitting size reduction from 4 inches to 2 inches is required. Typical applications include irrigation mainlines, water service laterals, drainage headers, and industrial process lines carrying compatible fluids. The Slip x FIPT end connection style suits installations where one side glues to a plain PVC pipe end and the other threads onto a female-threaded fitting or valve body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 4-inch Slip connections to 2-inch FIPT threaded outlets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure PVC piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePVC material provides corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility with common water and irrigation fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlip (spigot) inlet accepts standard solvent-cement installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFIPT outlet threads directly onto male-threaded fittings, valves, or adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 40 PVC piping systems requiring a 4-inch to 2-inch concentric reduction with Slip x FIPT end connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes.
