Value Collection 439-248 Pvc Pipe Bushing Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 439-248 is a Schedule 40 PVC pipe bushing designed to reduce a 2-inch female threaded port down to a 0.75-inch male threaded connection. It uses a male iron pipe thread (MIPT) on the outer end and a female iron pipe thread (FIPT) on the inner end, making it a standard threaded reducer for PVC piping systems. Weighing 0.18 pounds, this bushing is lightweight and corrosion-resistant, suited for potable water, irrigation, and general plumbing distribution lines. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where pipe size reductions are needed at threaded joints.

This bushing is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where Schedule 40 PVC pipe systems require a threaded size reduction. Typical install scenarios include water supply lines, irrigation manifolds, and drain or vent assemblies where a 2-inch threaded female port must accept a 0.75-inch male-threaded pipe or fitting. It is sold and packaged individually.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 PVC construction for standard-pressure service in water and irrigation systems
• MIPT x FIPT end connections allow direct threaded installation without adhesive at the joint
• Reduces from 2-inch to 0.75-inch pipe size in a single fitting
• Lightweight at 0.18 pounds, corrosion-resistant PVC material
• Sold as a single unit with no minimum multi-pack requirement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with Schedule 40 PVC threaded piping systems using standard NPT thread patterns at 2-inch and 0.75-inch pipe sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters working on threaded PVC systems. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before disassembling any threaded joint. Apply PTFE thread tape or an appropriate pipe thread sealant rated for PVC to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded PVC fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque; hand-tight plus a moderate turn with strap wrenches is standard practice.
