What is Hydroplast sch 80 upvc Reducer Bush 1-1/2 x 3/4″ ?

 

The Hydroplast Schedule 80 UPVC Reducer Bush 1-1/2 x 3/4″ is a plumbing fitting used to connect two pipes of different diameters, specifically reducing from a larger diameter (1-1/2 inches) to a smaller diameter (3/4 inch). Here are the detailed specifications and usage information:

Description:

• Material: Made from Schedule 80 Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC), which is known for its strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion and chemicals.
• Size: The reducer bush has a larger end with a diameter of 1-1/2 inches and a smaller end with a diameter of 3/4 inch.
• Type: It is a bushing fitting, which means it is designed to fit inside another fitting or pipe.
• Pressure Rating: Schedule 80 fittings are designed to handle higher pressure applications compared to Schedule 40 fittings, making them suitable for various industrial and commercial applications.

Usage:

• Applications: Commonly used in plumbing, irrigation, and industrial piping systems where a reduction in pipe size is necessary. It can be used in water supply lines, chemical processing, and other fluid transport systems.
• Installation: The reducer bush can be glued into place using solvent cement, which creates a strong, permanent bond. Proper surface preparation and application of the cement are essential for a leak-proof connection.
• Temperature Range: UPVC fittings can typically handle temperatures up to 140°F (60°C), making them suitable for cold and warm water applications but not for hot water or steam.

Advantages:

• Corrosion Resistance: Unlike metal fittings, UPVC does not rust or corrode, ensuring a longer lifespan.
• Lightweight: Easier to handle and install compared to metal fittings.
• Cost-Effective: Generally more affordable than metal alternatives while providing similar performance in many applications.

Considerations:

• Ensure compatibility with the pipes being used, as UPVC fittings are designed for specific types of piping systems.
• Not suitable for use with compressed air or gas applications.
