Benefits & Applications

This polypropylene threaded reducer bushing simplifies pipe downsizing while maintaining a tight, reliable seal. The chemically resistant material reduces maintenance and replacement costs when handling aggressive liquids. Its threaded design allows fast installation—typically requiring only basic hand tools and standard thread sealant or PTFE tape—to adapt existing piping without welding or solvent joining.

Common uses: - Residential and commercial plumbing - Irrigation and drip systems - Drainage and sump systems - Chemical transfer and processing lines - HVAC and pool equipment hook-ups

Example: Replace a large supply line with a smaller feed to a valve or instrument quickly and reliably without special fittings. The model 62275 helps prevent leaks and downtime in both indoor and outdoor installations.

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure threads are clean and undamaged before assembly.
• Use plumber’s (PTFE) tape or appropriate thread sealant for a reliable leak-free joint.
• Avoid over-tightening; hand-tighten and then use a wrench for a partial turn if required.
• Verify chemical compatibility and temperature conditions for your specific application.
