Value Collection 839-422C Cpvc Pipe Bushing 4x3 in Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 839-422C is a Schedule 80 CPVC pipe bushing designed to reduce a 4-inch female threaded port down to a 3-inch male threaded connection. It features male iron pipe thread (MIPT) on the smaller end and female iron pipe thread (FIPT) on the larger end. CPVC construction provides resistance to corrosion, elevated temperatures, and many industrial chemicals, making this bushing suitable for demanding piping systems. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when reducing pipe size within a threaded Schedule 80 system. The part weighs 1.17 pounds and is sold individually.

This bushing is used in Schedule 80 CPVC piping systems found in residential and commercial plumbing, industrial process piping, and chemical distribution lines. It is appropriate wherever a threaded reduction from 4 inches to 3 inches is required and the system demands the higher pressure and temperature ratings associated with Schedule 80 wall thickness. The MIPT x FIPT configuration allows direct threaded assembly without additional adapters.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• CPVC material offers corrosion resistance and elevated temperature tolerance
• MIPT x FIPT end connections for straightforward threaded assembly
• Reduces from 4 inches to 3 inches in a single fitting
• Sold as a single unit with no minimum order beyond one piece

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 CPVC threaded piping systems requiring a 4-inch to 3-inch reduction with MIPT x FIPT 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 affected piping section before disassembly or installation. Use a thread sealant rated for CPVC and potable or process water as applicable. Do not use petroleum-based pipe dopes or solvent-based compounds incompatible with CPVC, as they can cause stress cracking.
