Clear PVC Bushing Fittings

Clear PVC bushing fittings are transparent plumbing components used to connect different pipe sizes in a piping system. Clear PVC bushings are precision engineered to reduce or increase pipe sizes to provide a smooth transition and flow rate adjustment while providing the ability to perform visual inspection. Clear bushings work by fitting inside a larger PVC fitting or pipe on one end and a reducing internal diameter on the other. This is done with a simple insertion process, where the outer diameter matches the inner diameter of the larger pipe and the inner diameter matches the smaller pipe to create a secure connection. Schedule 40 clear PVC bushing fittings are designed to improve functionality, cleanliness, and maintenance and can be used with clear PVC pipe and other Schedule 40 pipe and components.

Clear PVC pipe bushings are made with limited coloring agents to provide a transparent design. They are made from the same high quality, high performance PVC as standard bushings to maintain the mechanical and chemical strength characteristics of PVC. Their see-through, transparent design allows current flow quality and network conditions to be easily inspected and monitored for easy detection of blockages, leaks, or contamination. Clear PVC reducer bushings have a dual function in size adjustment and visual inspection. They are preferred for applications where flow integrity and monitoring is critical or in systems that experience biofilms, algae, or sediment buildup, such as in medical, food and beverage, and chemical processing industries. Clear PVC bushing fittings can be used with freshwater, non-potable water as well as compatible chemicals, solutions, materials, and ingredients. 

• Transparent Design: Enables visual monitoring of fluid flow and internal conditions for early detection and identifying buildup, growth, or other plumbing problems. 
• Smooth Flow: Smooth interior walls work to reduce friction for maintaining flow rates.
• Adaptability: Designed to connect pipes of different diameters. 
• Sizes: Available in sizes from 3/4” x 1” up to 8” x 6” in diameter and Schedule 40 standard.
• Connections: Clear pipe bushings come in slip socket by spigot connection options. 
• Installation: To maintain visual clarity, clear cement and primer are recommended for solvent weld installation.

Manufactured in the USA according to ISO 9001, ASTM D1784, and ASTM D2466 standards, our clear PVC bushing fittings offer quality, durability, and reliability. Clear pipe bushings are FDA Title 21 compliant and NSF 61 certified and approved for potable water and consumables. These fittings are built to meet a wide range of dimensional requirements and plumbing setup needs to provide compatibility across various applications. They are built for Schedule 40 installations to offer seamless connections with Schedule 40 plumbing systems.

Clear PVC bushings are made from premium grade PVC material for strength and resistance against environmental conditions, chemical corrosion, and temperature changes. Clear PVC bushings are rated for liquid temperatures up to 140°F (60°C). A minimum temperature of 32°F (0°C) is recommended when handling water. Due to the wide range of chemicals, always verify compatibility before using these fittings to handle chemicals or solutions. 

Clear PVC bushing fittings are used in work applications that require system flexibility, integrity, and the capability for continuous monitoring. Their corrosion resistance makes clear PVC bushings ideal for handling a variety of chemicals and solutions. They are often used in chemical processing, water treatment, food and beverage processing, scientific research laboratories, and plumbing projects that benefit from the ability to visually inspect system flow conditions or that have strict hygiene standards. Additional uses include educational facilities, aquariums, water features, fish farms, agriculture, pools, spas, and DIY projects.

Our clear pipe fittings offer quality, performance, and versatility, and are designed to meet the demands of various plumbing systems and projects. Made right here in the USA to the industry’s top standards, our products offer reliability and durability that exceed expectations. For more information or details on contractor pricing, contact us.
