Product Overview
The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 438073 reducer bushing is designed to transition from a 1/2-inch spigot connection to a 3/8-inch female threaded connection in compatible PVC plumbing systems. Its compact design allows it to reduce pipe size while providing a threaded outlet for compatible fittings or accessories.
