Spears PVC Reducing Bushing, MPT x FPT, Schedule 80
The Spears PVC Reducing Bushing is a Schedule 80 fitting engineered to transition between two different pipe diameters within a threaded PVC piping run, such as the 1" x 3/4" size configuration. Built with a male pipe thread (MPT) on one end and a female pipe thread (FPT) on the other, this bushing allows installers to step down pipe size while maintaining a secure, leak-resistant threaded connection. Constructed from Schedule 80 PVC, it offers the strength and chemical resistance professionals expect for demanding pressure piping applications.
Key Features
- Reducing Design: Steps down from a larger trade size to a smaller trade size (e.g. 1" x 3/4") within the same threaded run.
- Durable Construction: Molded from Schedule 80 PVC for added wall thickness, pressure rating, and resistance to corrosion and chemical attack compared to lighter-duty fittings.
- MPT x FPT Connection: Male pipe thread on one end and female pipe thread on the other, enabling a direct threaded transition between differing pipe or fitting sizes.
- Schedule 80 Rated: Suited to higher-pressure PVC piping systems where standard Schedule 40 fittings may not be adequate.
- Versatile Sizing: Available in multiple reducing size combinations, including 1" x 3/4", to match common PVC piping transitions.
- Corrosion Resistant: PVC construction resists rust, rot, and chemical degradation common in metallic fittings.
