Atlas UPVC Reducer Bush, 82mm x 56mm, Reducer Used for Soil & Waste Lines

This reducer bush family covers various size pairings across the range from 20mm up to 110mm. The 75mm x 50mm version specifically reduces a 75mm pipe to 50mm, making it suitable for projects where a larger main run needs to feed a smaller branch or fixture.

Steps: cut the pipes square and clean the ends, dry-fit to confirm alignment, apply appropriate uPVC primer and solvent cement, insert the reducer bush fully and twist slightly to seat, ensure the larger end faces the larger pipe, and allow the joint to cure before testing for leaks.

The reducer bush is made from durable uPVC, which provides good chemical resistance and longevity in standard plumbing environments.

It’s used to connect two uPVC pipes of different sizes, enabling a transition within a piping network. It can also help connect pipes that change diameter or align at varying angles, though additional fittings may be needed for non-straight connections.

Yes. While the reducer bush can be used to join pipes at different angles, ensure proper alignment and consider additional fittings or elbows if needed to achieve a secure, leak-free connection and proper flow path from the larger to the smaller section.

Ensure surfaces are clean and dry, use the correct uPVC primer and solvent cement, seat the joint fully by pushing the bush in until it’s flush with the pipe, and verify the connection after curing by running water at a low pressure test.

The reducer bush is designed for standard uPVC plumbing applications. For potable water use, verify that the specific product meets your local certification and code requirements before installation.

It combines durable uPVC construction with a simple install process, reducing pipe size efficiently and helping to minimize the need for multiple fittings. Its availability in multiple size combinations also supports a wide range of projects, potentially lowering total part costs and installation time.

Wear safety gloves when cutting and handling pipes, ensure proper ventilation when using solvent cement, follow standard plumbing safety practices, and perform a pressure test after installation to confirm there are no leaks.
