3" x 1-1/2" Polypropylene Threaded Reducer Bushing | 62282

3" x 1-1/2" Polypropylene Threaded Reducer Bushing — Part 62282

The 3" x 1-1/2" Polypropylene Threaded Reducer Bushing (Part 62282) from Barr Plastics is a durable plumbing fitting that reduces a 3" threaded opening to a 1-1/2" connection. Made from chemical-resistant polypropylene, this threaded reducer bushing delivers a secure, lightweight transition between different pipe sizes for plumbing, irrigation, and chemical handling systems.

Features & Specifications

• Part number: 62282 (Barr Plastics)
• Material: Polypropylene — excellent chemical and corrosion resistance
• Size: 3" (male threads) x 1-1/2" (female)
• Threaded design for positive, leak-minimizing connections
• Lightweight, fatigue-resistant construction for long service life
• Easy installation and removal with standard thread sealant or PTFE tape
• Compatible with standard pipe fittings and accessories in corresponding sizes

Benefits & Applications

This polypropylene reducer bushing solves the common problem of joining dissimilar pipe sizes without welding or complex adapters. Its corrosion- and chemical-resistant material makes it ideal where metal fittings would fail — for example, in chemical feed lines, irrigation manifolds, and general plumbing systems. Use it to step down from a 3" supply line to a 1-1/2" branch, balance flow in multi-line irrigation systems, or create secure connections in corrosive process environments.

Because it is lightweight and easy to handle, installation and maintenance times drop compared with heavier metal fittings. The threaded connection simplifies repairs and reconfiguration: hand-remove or use standard tools and reapply thread sealant as needed.

Installation Notes

Install using standard threaded fitting practices. Apply PTFE tape or an approved thread sealant on male threads before assembly and tighten per industry guidelines. Periodically inspect threads for wear and verify tightness to prevent leaks.
