  • Usage: Suitable for potable water systems, irrigation, drainage, and certain chemical applications.

Description

A PVC Reducer Bush is a fitting used in plumbing systems to connect two pipes of different diameters. A reducer bush’s primary purpose is to gradually reduce the pipe system’s size, ensuring a smooth flow of liquids or gases. The “1” x 3/4″ sizes indicate that the fitting reduces from a 1-inch diameter pipe to a 3/4-inch diameter pipe.

Features:

  1. Material: Made from durable PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), which is known for its high strength, lightweight, and resistance to chemicals and corrosion.
  2. Corrosion Resistance: PVC material does not rust or corrode, making it suitable for a wide range of environments, including those with exposure to chemicals.
  3. Smooth Interior Surface: Minimizes friction, which promotes efficient flow and reduces the risk of blockages.
  4. UV Resistance: Typically UV stabilized to prevent degradation when exposed to sunlight (for certain types and applications).
  5. Ease of Installation: Lightweight and easy to handle, allowing for quick installation without specialized tools.
  6. Compatibility: Designed to fit standard-sized pipes, providing a secure and leak-proof connection when used with PVC cement.
  7. Cost-Effective: PVC fittings are generally less expensive compared to metal alternatives, offering a budget-friendly solution for plumbing and irrigation systems.
