Male Reducing Adapter 3/4" MIPT x 1" Slip (436-102)
This 3/4" x 1" male reducing adapter provides a straightforward transition from a 3/4" male pipe thread to a 1" slip (socket) PVC connection. Designed for common irrigation and general plumbing applications, the adapter converts threaded outlets to solvent-weld pipe quickly and reliably when used with proper installation techniques.
- Material: PVC construction for corrosion resistance in typical water and irrigation systems.
- Connections: 3/4" MIPT (male iron pipe thread) on the reducing end and a 1" slip (socket) on the opposite side.
- Use cases: Ideal for connecting threaded valves, timers, or fittings to 1" PVC pipe runs in irrigation, landscape, and light plumbing work.
- Installation: Threaded end accepts standard thread sealant or PTFE tape; slip end is solvent-welded to schedule-compatible PVC pipe.
- Durability: PVC resists corrosion and is suitable for outdoor irrigation and non-pressurized or low-pressure plumbing applications when used per code.
Before installation, verify local plumbing codes and pressure ratings for your system. Clean and dry the surfaces before solvent welding the slip socket; apply PTFE tape or a compatible thread sealant to the threaded end and hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading. Do not overtighten plastic threads—tighten until snug and then an additional 1/4–1/2 turn if needed. If you need help matching this adapter to existing fittings, consult product specifications or reach out to a qualified plumbing or irrigation professional.
