1" x 3/4" Polypropylene Threaded Reducer Bushing | 62276

1" x 3/4" Polypropylene Threaded Reducer Bushing — Part #62276

The 1" x 3/4" Polypropylene Threaded Reducer Bushing (part number 62276) from Barr Plastics is a lightweight, chemical‑resistant fitting that lets you join 1" and 3/4" threaded pipes quickly and securely. Its threaded design simplifies installation for irrigation, plumbing, aquaculture, and light industrial systems while resisting common chemicals and corrosion.

Features & Specifications

• Sizes: 1" nominal diameter to 3/4" nominal diameter reducer
• Type: Threaded bushing with internal and external threads for screw‑in connections
• Installation: Threaded connection — use standard pipe sealant or PTFE tape for leak-free joints
• Weight: Lightweight thermoplastic for easier handling and reduced support requirements
• Temperature: Designed for moderate temperature ranges typical of plumbing and irrigation systems
• Maintenance: Low maintenance; periodic inspection of threads recommended to prevent leaks
• Compatibility: Works with standard 1" and 3/4" threaded pipes and polypropylene fittings

Benefits & Applications

This reducer bushing solves the common problem of joining mismatched pipe sizes without bulky adapters. It reduces installation time and inventory needs by allowing direct transitions between 1" and 3/4" threaded lines. Because polypropylene resists corrosion and many chemicals, the fitting performs well in irrigation systems, municipal and industrial wastewater lines, aquaculture systems, and chemical processing where non-metallic fittings are preferred. For example, convert a 1" distribution line to a 3/4" feeder in a sprinkler or greenhouse application quickly with minimal tools.

Installation Notes

Thread the bushing into the larger fitting or pipe and then install the smaller pipe into the bushing. Apply standard pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to threads for a reliable seal. Tighten securely but avoid over‑torquing to prevent cracking—hand start threads, then use a wrench as needed to finish the connection.
