Value Collection 837-289 Pvc Reducer Bushing Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 837-289 is a Schedule 80 PVC reducer bushing designed to transition pipe from a 2.5-inch line down to a 1-inch line. It features a spigot on the larger end and a socket on the smaller end, allowing it to seat directly into a matching socket fitting without the need for an additional coupling. Fabricated from PVC, this bushing handles the pressure demands of Schedule 80 piping systems and resists corrosion from a wide range of chemicals and water treatment compounds. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit work where pipe diameter must be reduced inline.

This reducer bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and industrial piping applications where Schedule 80 PVC is specified. It is commonly installed in potable water distribution, drainage, chemical transfer, and pool or spa plumbing systems. The spigot-by-socket end configuration integrates directly into solvent-weld PVC piping assemblies without adapters.

Key Features

• Reduces 2.5-inch pipe to 1-inch pipe in a single fitting
• Schedule 80 wall thickness for elevated pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• Spigot x Socket end connections for direct solvent-weld installation
• PVC construction provides corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility
• Lightweight at 0.47 pounds, simplifying handling in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using 2.5-inch to 1-inch reducer configurations with spigot-by-socket end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters working with Schedule 80 PVC solvent-weld systems. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before cutting or fitting. Clean and dry all mating surfaces, apply PVC primer, and follow with the appropriate Schedule 80 PVC cement before joining. Allow full cure time per the cement manufacturer instructions before restoring system pressure.
