Chemtrol Schedule 80 Reducer Bushing
The Chemtrol 6518 is a Schedule 80 reducing bushing made from polyvinylidene fluoride. It connects a 1 1/2 inch male spigot to a 1 inch female socket in industrial piping systems. The fitting includes a seal and handles pressures up to 360 psi at 73 degrees Fahrenheit.
Verify Pipe Schedule and Temperature Range
Confirm that your existing piping uses Schedule 80 dimensions for a proper fit. The bushing is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 360 psi at 73 degrees Fahrenheit. Ensure your system temperature stays within the 73 to 280 degrees Fahrenheit operating range before installation.
Fits Schedule 80 Systems With Seal Included
This reducer integrates directly into Schedule 80 pipelines without requiring a separate gasket. The spigot-by-socket configuration joins two different pipe sizes while maintaining the pressure rating. Its 2 27/64 inch overall length allows it to sit within standard Schedule 80 assemblies.

Questions about this item
Does the Chemtrol 6518 reducer bushing come with the seal already included or do I need to order one separately?
The Chemtrol 6518 reducer bushing includes the seal so no separate purchase is required.
How do I decide between the SPG male end and the socket female end when planning the joint?
The SPG male spigot fits inside a 1 1/2 in Schedule 80 socket fitting while the 1 in female socket accepts a 1 in Schedule 80 pipe end.
What does the 360 psi rating mean when the system runs at the upper end of the 73 to 280 Degrees F range?
The 360 psi maximum operating pressure applies at 73 Degrees F; pressure capacity decreases as temperature rises toward 280 Degrees F.
