Installers joining Schedule 80 pipe of dissimilar
The fitting suits installers who need a durable, chemical-resistant transition between 3/4 inch and 1/2 inch Schedule 80 pipe within a 73 to 280 degrees Fahrenheit range. It is not intended for systems using different pipe schedules, metric dimensions, or threaded joint methods.
Schedule 80 polyvinylidene fluoride construction
The single specification that determines fit is the Schedule 80 wall thickness matched to polyvinylidene fluoride material. Only pipe and fittings sharing this exact schedule and material will produce a reliable solvent-weld joint at the rated 360 psi pressure.

Questions about this item
Which Chemtrol 6518 reducer bushing should I select for my Schedule 80 piping?
This Chemtrol 6518 reducer bushing is designed for Schedule 80 pipe and fits a 3/4 inch spigot to a 1/2 inch socket connection.
What does the 360 psi rating mean when the fitting is installed?
The 360 psi maximum operating pressure applies at 73 degrees Fahrenheit; pressure capacity decreases as temperature rises toward the 280 degrees Fahrenheit limit.
How does the SPG x S connection standard limit the installation?
The spigot end inserts into a 3/4 inch socket fitting while the socket end accepts a 1/2 inch spigot pipe, restricting flow direction to that specific reduction.
