Bushing, Spigot x FPT (Flush Style) PVC Schedule 80 2-1/2" x 2" (838-292)
$13.75
The 838-292 is a 2-1/2" x 2" PVC Schedule 80 flush bushing in a spigot x female pipe thread (FPT) configuration. The flush style seats fully within the receiving fitting socket with no hex shoulder protruding from the face — making it the right choice when a clean, compact assembly is needed or when space around the fitting is restricted.
Built to Schedule 80 wall thickness standards from rigid PVC compound, this bushing handles the elevated pressure ratings required in industrial and commercial pressure service. It reduces a 2-1/2" spigot connection to a 2" female threaded port — the smallest single-step reduction available in this inlet size, and one of the most commonly specified configurations when a system transitions from a 2-1/2" socket fitting to a 2" threaded valve, union, or manifold connection.
The near-matched sizing between inlet and outlet keeps flow velocity changes minimal across the reduction, making the 838-292 a practical choice in systems where pressure drop and flow efficiency are engineering considerations. As with all Schedule 80 PVC fittings, this bushing is fully resistant to corrosion, chemical attack, and biological fouling — with no rust, scale, or galvanic issues associated with metal hardware.
