Westlake Pipe & Fittings 436-251 Reducing Male Adapter, 2″ MPT x 1.5″ Slip

The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 436-251 Reducing Male Adapter, 2″ MPT x 1.5″ Slip, is a high-quality PVC fitting designed to seamlessly connect pipes of different sizes, offering a reliable and durable transition for plumbing, irrigation, pool, and spa systems. Crafted from durable Schedule 40 PVC, this reducing adapter ensures long-lasting performance while maintaining system integrity, making it suitable for both residential and commercial applications.

This adapter features a 2-inch male pipe thread (MPT) end and a 1.5-inch slip (spigot) end, providing an efficient connection between a larger threaded pipe or fitting and a smaller slip PVC pipe. The threaded MPT end allows for a secure, leak-resistant connection to female-threaded components, such as valves, pumps, or larger pipe sections, while the slip end can be bonded with PVC cement to standard Schedule 40 PVC piping. This combination of threaded and slip connections provides versatility, simplifying system modifications, retrofits, or new installations.

Constructed from premium PVC material, the 436-251 Reducing Male Adapter is highly resistant to corrosion, chemical exposure, and UV damage, making it suitable for outdoor environments and chemically treated systems, including pools and spas. Its robust construction withstands pressure fluctuations and harsh environmental conditions while maintaining a tight, leak-free seal. The smooth interior surface ensures minimal turbulence and supports consistent water flow throughout the piping system, promoting optimal efficiency and performance.

Installation is quick and straightforward. Simply apply PVC cement to the slip end for bonding and thread the male end into the corresponding female-threaded fitting. The precision-molded threads provide a secure connection without cross-threading, and the lightweight yet durable design allows for easy handling and alignment during installation. This reduces labor time and ensures a professional, reliable installation every time.
