Lasco 439338 is a Schedule 40 PVC threaded reducing bushing that adapts a 3" male pipe thread (MPT/MIPT) to a 2" female pipe thread (FPT/FIPT). Made from durable PVC, this fitting provides a reliable, corrosion-resistant threaded connection for irrigation, pool, residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Manufacturer & Part: Lasco 439338, common replacement part for Schedule 40 PVC systems. Material: White PVC (Schedule 40) for long-lasting corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility with standard irrigation and pool chemicals. Connection: 3" MPT (male thread) x 2" FPT (female thread) — thread-to-thread reducing bushing for joining different diameters. Use Cases: Ideal for irrigation, pool plumbing, reclaimed water lines, and general Schedule 40 PVC pipe systems where a threaded reduction is required. Installation Notes: Apply PTFE thread tape or approved pipe sealant to male threads; hand-start then tighten with a wrench—do not overtighten to avoid stressing PVC threads. Specifications: Schedule 40 sizing, manufacturer part number 439338; typical weight ~0.52 lb and dimensions compatible with standard 3" and 2" threaded Schedule 40 fittings. This threaded reducing bushing simplifies size transitions without solvent welding, making it a convenient option when a removable or temporary threaded connection is desired. Always confirm compatibility with your existing threaded fittings and follow local plumbing codes. For heavy mechanical loads, consider using proper supports or transition fittings rated for the application.
