Spears CPVC IPS-to-CTS Transition Bushing, Spigot x Socket

The Spears CPVC IPS-to-CTS Transition Bushing bridges IPS (Iron Pipe Size) and CTS (Copper Tube Size) CPVC piping runs in a spigot x socket (SPGxSOC) configuration, giving installers a dependable way to transition between pipe standards without swapping systems. Molded from durable CPVC for corrosion and chemical resistance, this transition bushing is built for plumbing and process piping applications where mixed pipe sizing is common. It ships packaged 100 each per carton, making it a practical choice for contractors and distributors stocking high-turnover fitting sizes.

Key Features

  • IPS-to-CTS Transition: Converts between IPS and CTS CPVC piping standards within a single fitting, eliminating the need for multiple adapters.
  • Spigot x Socket (SPGxSOC) Configuration: Spigot and socket ends allow straightforward solvent-weld installation into existing CPVC runs.
  • Durable CPVC Construction: Corrosion- and chemical-resistant CPVC material supports long-term performance in demanding piping environments.
  • Reliable Solvent-Weld Connection: Socket and spigot ends are designed for a secure, leak-resistant solvent-cement joint.
  • Bulk Packaging: Supplied 100 each per carton for efficient stocking and job-site distribution.
  • Lightweight, Corrosion-Free Material: CPVC construction resists the corrosion issues associated with metallic transition fittings.

Spears 4147-005 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a CPVC IPS-to-CTS transition bushing actually do?
It joins two different CPVC sizing standards in one fitting. IPS (Iron Pipe Size) and CTS (Copper Tube Size) CPVC are not interchangeable at the joint, so running from one to the other normally takes a pair of adapters. The Spears 4140 bushing does it in a single solvent-weld part: spigot on one end, socket on the other.
2) Does the spigot end glue into a fitting socket, or do I need a coupling?
The spigot end is sized like pipe, so it drops straight into a CPVC fitting socket and is solvent cemented there. No coupling needed on that side. The other end is a socket that takes pipe. Both joints are solvent weld, not threaded.
3) Can I use this bushing to connect CPVC to copper pipe?
No. The Spears 4140 bushing is CPVC on both ends and joins CPVC to CPVC, moving between IPS-sized and CTS-sized CPVC. Going to actual copper tube takes a metal-thread or transition adapter instead, not this bushing.
4) What sizes does the Spears CPVC transition bushing come in?
Three sizes: 1/2 inch (part 4147-005), 3/4 inch (4140-007), and 1 inch (4140-010). Those cover the common residential and light commercial CPVC branch sizes.
5) Is this bushing threaded? I need to know what cement and prep to bring.
No threads on either end. Both connections are solvent weld, so you will need CPVC primer (where your code calls for it) and CPVC solvent cement. Cut square, deburr, dry fit, then cement. Nothing to tape or dope.
6) How is this bushing packaged for a distributor or a stocking contractor?
It ships 100 each per carton, which is why it works as a shelf item for distributors and for contractors stocking high-turnover CPVC fitting sizes rather than buying one at a time.
7) Will CPVC hold up better than a brass or galvanized transition fitting?
For corrosion, yes. The Spears bushing is molded CPVC, which resists the corrosion and chemical attack that eat metallic transition fittings in aggressive water or process lines. It is also lighter to handle in bulk.
8) Where is this transition bushing typically used on a job?
Plumbing and process piping where the run changes sizing standards: potable water distribution, branch takeoffs, and retrofit work where existing CPVC does not match the new material being run. Common in both residential and commercial construction.
