438-210 is a Schedule 40 PVC reducer bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/2" spigot outlet to a 3/4" female pipe thread (FIPT). Engineered for use in standard PVC pressure systems, this injection-molded, flush-style bushing offers consistent dimensions, a smooth internal profile for minimal flow restriction, and reliable seating for threaded connections.

  • Part: 438-210; Nominal size 1-1/2" x 3/4".
  • Material: Type 1 PVC, injection-molded, white; suitable for Schedule 40 systems.
  • Connections: Spigot (socket) x Female Iron Pipe Thread (FIPT / FPT) — flush reducer style.
  • Standards: Manufactured to common PVC fitting standards (ASTM D1784/D2466) and listed by distributors with NSF/ANSI 14 and NSF/ANSI 61 where noted.
  • Temperature & Use: Typical maximum service temperature ~140°F (60°C); appropriate for irrigation, pool supply lines, outdoor plumbing, and many potable water applications per listed approvals.
  • Packaging: Sold individually (SKU 438210) or in bulk case quantities (SKU 438210-25).

This reducer bushing provides a compact, cost-effective transition between differing Schedule 40 PVC sizes. For installation, clean and dry the spigot socket before solvent welding the mating pipe, and apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads when engaging the FIPT connection. Confirm local codes and manufacturer guidance before use in pressure or potable systems.
