Made from rigid PVC, this bushing handles standard pressure and chemical-resistance demands found in residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and pool\/spa piping systems. The male iron pipe thread (MIPT) on the outer end threads into a female-threaded fitting or valve, while the female iron pipe thread (FIPT) on the inner end accepts a smaller male-threaded pipe or fitting. At 0.09 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for cold and ambient-temperature water distribution, irrigation manifolds, pool equipment pads, and general fluid-handling systems where PVC Schedule 40 pipe and fittings are specified. It is a direct drop-in for reducing pipe size at any threaded junction without requiring additional adapters. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and pool service professionals commonly use this fitting when transitioning between pipe sizes within a Schedule 40 system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 PVC construction for standard-service pressure ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 1-1\/4-inch female threaded port to 1\/2-inch male threaded connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMIPT x FIPT end connections for threaded assembly without solvent welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRigid PVC material resists corrosion and common chemicals found in water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.09 pounds for easy single-hand installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade fitting for any Schedule 40 PVC threaded piping system requiring a 1-1\/4-inch to 1\/2-inch bushing reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by plumbers or irrigation technicians working on Schedule 40 PVC threaded systems. Shut off water supply and depressurize the line before disassembling any fittings. Apply PTFE tape or an approved pipe thread sealant to the male threads before assembly — do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes, including IPC guidelines, for threaded plastic fittings.\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\/4 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: MIPT 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: 0.09 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: 439-166\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51714123530546,"sku":"439-166","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9e3eb11b0e6b2589491e04b09de4cf91.jpg?v=1788496542","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-439-166-pvc-pipe-bushing-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
