Durable PVC threaded reducer bushing designed to transition from 2" male threads to 1-1/2" female threads in standard Schedule 40 plumbing. Manufactured to industry standards for potable water and pool/irrigation systems, this fitting provides a compact, leak-resistant connection where a reduced port size is required. Material: Durable PVC (Schedule 40) formulated for plumbing and pool applications. Size & Threads: 2" MPT (male) x 1-1/2" FPT (female) — reduces pipe size without adapters. Standards: Conforms to ASTM D2466; certified to NSF-14 and NSF-61 for potable water. Pressure & Temperature: Rated to 280 PSI maximum working pressure; recommended service temperature up to 140°F (32°–140°F). Construction & Finish: White Schedule 40 PVC, molded for consistent threads and reliable sealing with compatible thread sealant or tape. Applications: Suitable for pool equipment, irrigation, and general potable water plumbing; not for compressed air or gases. Install by applying approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads and hand-tightening followed by a short turn with a wrench—avoid over-tightening to prevent stress on the PVC. This compact reducer bushing saves space compared with bulkier adaptors and simplifies repairs or modifications where a smaller branch is required. Manufacturer part 439-251 is commonly stocked for fast replacement in pool and irrigation service kits.
