Description
4" x 3/4" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Coupling (SOC) Bushed
4" x 3/4" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Coupling (SOC) Bushed provides a substantial size transition between compatible CPVC piping using solvent-cement socket connections. The bushed reducing configuration transitions from a 4" connection to a 3/4" connection within a compact Schedule 80 CPVC fitting.
The Schedule 80 CPVC reducing coupling is designed for applications where different nominal pipe sizes must be joined in a straight piping run. Selection should account for the 4" x 3/4" size combination, socket compatibility, piping alignment, system conditions, and proper CPVC solvent-cement joining procedures.

Bushed Reducing Design
The bushed reducing design provides a direct transition from a 4" connection to a substantially smaller 3/4" connection. This configuration combines the reduction within a single coupling-style fitting for use in compatible Schedule 80 CPVC piping.
The 4" x 3/4" size combination should be verified carefully before ordering. Both adjoining pipe sizes should match the corresponding socket interfaces of the fitting.
Socket Connections
The socket connections are designed to accept compatible CPVC pipe at the specified 4" and 3/4" ends. Each connection uses solvent-cement joining to integrate the reducing coupling into the piping system.
Pipe ends and fitting sockets should be clean and properly prepared before assembly. Compatible CPVC primer, solvent cement, insertion procedures, and required cure times should be followed.
4" x 3/4" Size Transition
The 4" x 3/4" configuration creates a significant reduction in nominal piping size while maintaining a straight-line connection. This allows a smaller compatible CPVC branch or piping section to transition from the larger 4" connection.
The direction of the size transition and adjoining piping layout should be reviewed before installation. Proper support is especially important where piping sizes change substantially.
Schedule 80 CPVC Application
A 4" x 3/4" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Coupling provides a molded size transition for compatible CPVC piping systems. Its socket configuration is intended for properly prepared solvent-cement connections.
System temperature, pressure, fluid compatibility, joining requirements, and applicable installation procedures should be reviewed for the intended application. Proper piping alignment and support should be maintained around the reduction.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the 4" x 3/4" size.
- Verify the socket configuration.
- Confirm the bushed reducing design.
- Check piping alignment before joining.
- Support both sides of the size transition.
Our piping specialists can help review the 4" x 3/4" size combination, socket compatibility, bushed configuration, adjoining CPVC pipe, and installation requirements before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 4" x 3/4" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Coupling used for?
It provides a straight size transition between compatible 4" and 3/4" CPVC piping.
What does SOC mean?
SOC identifies a socket connection designed to accept compatible CPVC pipe for solvent-cement joining.
What does bushed mean on this reducing coupling?
It identifies the fitting as a bushed reducing configuration that incorporates the smaller connection into the coupling design.
What pipe sizes does this coupling connect?
This reducing coupling transitions between compatible 4" and 3/4" CPVC piping.
How are the connections installed?
The socket connections are designed for compatible CPVC solvent-cement joining using appropriate preparation, joining materials, and cure procedures.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm the 4" x 3/4" size combination, socket configuration, bushed design, adjoining CPVC pipe sizes, and system requirements.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm the 4" x 3/4" size.
- Verify the socket configuration.
- Confirm the bushed reducing design.
- Check both adjoining pipe sizes.
- Use compatible CPVC joining procedures.
