Value Collection 839-211C Cpvc Bushing 1-1/2x1 in Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 839-211C is a Schedule 80 CPVC pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/2 inch female threaded port down to a 1 inch male threaded connection. It features a male iron pipe thread (MIPT) on the outer end and a female iron pipe thread (FIPT) on the socket end, allowing it to serve as a concentric reducer fitting in threaded piping systems. CPVC construction provides resistance to corrosion, chemical attack, and elevated service temperatures that exceed the limits of standard PVC. This bushing is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a threaded line size reduction is required. Common applications include hot and cold water distribution, chemical handling lines, and industrial process piping operating within CPVC temperature and pressure ratings. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides additional strength compared to Schedule 40 fittings, making it appropriate for higher-pressure service conditions.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure rating over Schedule 40 fittings
• CPVC material resists corrosion and is rated for hot water service
• MIPT x FIPT end connections for fully threaded installation without solvent weld
• 1-1/2 inch to 1 inch size reduction in a single compact fitting
• Lightweight at 0.37 pounds, simplifying handling in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with Schedule 80 CPVC threaded piping systems using 1-1/2 inch female ports and 1 inch male pipe connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM standards for CPVC threaded fittings. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before removing any existing fitting or making new connections. Use an appropriate CPVC-rated thread sealant or PTFE tape on male threads — do not use pipe dope compounds that are not rated for CPVC, as they can degrade the material. Hand-tighten first, then snug with a strap wrench; avoid over-torquing, which can crack threaded CPVC fittings.
