Spears CPVC CTS Reducer Bushing, Spigot x Socket Pipe Fitting

The Spears CPVC CTS Reducer Bushing, Spigot x Socket is a reducing fitting engineered specifically for CPVC CTS (Copper Tube Size) piping systems, allowing installers to transition smoothly between two different pipe diameters within the same CTS run. Molded from CPVC for strong corrosion and chemical resistance, this reducer bushing pairs a spigot end with a socket end so it can be inserted directly into an existing CTS fitting while still accepting standard CTS pipe on the opposite side. It is offered in a range of CTS reducing size combinations, making it a practical solution wherever a piping run needs to step down or step up in diameter without swapping to a different fitting type.

Key Features

  • Reducer Bushing Design: Provides a single-fitting transition between two different CTS pipe sizes, reducing the number of fittings required in a run.
  • Durable CPVC Construction: Manufactured from CPVC material, offering strong corrosion and chemical resistance for long-term performance in CTS piping systems.
  • Spigot x Socket Configuration: The spigot end inserts directly into a mating socket fitting while the socket end accepts CTS pipe, simplifying solvent-weld assembly.
  • CTS Sizing Standard: Dimensioned to Copper Tube Size (CTS) standards for consistent, reliable fit with other CTS CPVC piping components.
  • Consistent Wall Thickness: Engineered for uniform fit-up and dependable solvent-cement bonding at both the spigot and socket connections.
  • Bulk Case Packaging: Supplied in case quantities to support contractor, distributor, and commercial project volume needs.

Spears 4137-101 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between a spigot x socket reducer bushing and a regular socket x socket CPVC fitting?
On the Spears CPVC CTS reducer bushing, one end is a spigot, meaning it is sized like pipe and slips into an existing socket fitting, and the other end is a socket that accepts CTS CPVC pipe. That lets you drop the bushing straight into a tee, elbow or coupling you already have glued in and step the branch down to a smaller CTS size, without cutting the fitting out and replacing it with a reducing fitting. A socket x socket coupling cannot do that, because it needs pipe on both sides.
2) Can I use this CPVC bushing to join CPVC to copper tube?
No. Despite the CTS designation, this is a CPVC-to-CPVC solvent-weld bushing. CTS refers only to the dimensional standard the fitting is made to, not to a copper connection. Both ends bond with CPVC solvent cement, so joining to actual copper tube requires a transition fitting, not this bushing.
3) Is this Spears bushing OK for potable water lines?
Yes. The CPVC CTS reducer bushing is intended for CTS CPVC potable water distribution, along with commercial and residential plumbing, retrofit of existing CTS runs, and new construction rough-in. CPVC is used here for corrosion and chemical resistance in those water lines.
4) How do I install a Spears CPVC CTS reducer bushing - does it thread in or get glued?
It is a solvent-weld fitting, not threaded. Both ends are cemented: the spigot end is cemented into the mating socket of the existing fitting, and the CTS pipe is cemented into the bushing's socket end. Use CPVC solvent cement rated for the system, and prime or clean per the cement manufacturer's directions. There are no gaskets, threads or tools beyond a cutter, deburring tool and cement.
5) Which CTS sizes does the Spears 4137 reducer bushing come in?
The 4137 series is a family of CTS reducing combinations, ordered by manufacturer part number. Two catalog numbers run under it: 4137-101 and 4137-131. Because a bushing's part number encodes the spigot size and the socket size, order by the exact 4137 number that matches the size you are stepping from and the size you are stepping to.
6) Can I use one reducer bushing instead of buying a reducing tee?
That is the point of the fitting. A single CPVC CTS bushing makes the transition between two different CTS pipe sizes, which cuts the number of fittings and joints in the run. On a branch where you already have a full-size socket, bushing it down is one joint instead of cutting in a reducing fitting plus couplings.
7) Do I have to order a whole case of these CPVC bushings?
Spears supplies this reducer bushing in bulk case quantities, which is how it is packaged for contractor, distributor and commercial project volumes. Plan on case quantities rather than a single loose fitting when you spec it.
