Description

Westlake Pipe & Fittings 401133 1″ x 1″ x 1.5″ Socket PVC Reducing Tee

The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 401133 1″ x 1″ x 1.5″ Socket PVC Reducing Tee is a high-quality, durable PVC fitting engineered to provide reliable three-way connections while accommodating a transition to a larger branch size. Designed for versatility, strength, and long-lasting performance, this reducing tee is ideal for plumbing, irrigation, pool and spa systems, water distribution lines, and other applications requiring a smooth upsizing of flow in a branching pipe.

Constructed from premium PVC material, the 401133 reducing tee offers exceptional structural integrity and long-term durability. Its robust design resists cracking, warping, and mechanical stress caused by pressure fluctuations, vibration, or frequent use. This ensures leak-free, dependable connections suitable for both professional installations and DIY projects.

The fitting features three socket (slip) connections—1 inch on the main line, 1 inch on the opposite branch, and 1.5 inches on the increased branch. Each connection is designed for secure solvent-weld installation with compatible PVC pipe. Solvent-weld joints provide a permanent, leak-resistant seal, maintaining system integrity over time. The precisely molded sockets and smooth internal surfaces allow proper pipe insertion, even cement distribution, and uniform alignment, resulting in strong, long-lasting joints.

The reducing tee configuration enables efficient splitting or combining of flow while providing a seamless transition to a larger branch line. This makes the 401133 ideal for applications that require upsizing for increased flow, pressure balancing, or connection to larger equipment. Its compact yet versatile design allows installation in tight spaces without compromising accessibility or performance.

PVC construction provides distinct advantages over metal fittings, especially in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The Westlake 401133 reducing tee is naturally resistant to corrosion, rust, and chemical degradation, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. Unlike metal fittings, it will not seize, pit, or scale over time, reducing maintenance requirements and extending the life of the piping system.

Despite its durable construction, the lightweight nature of PVC makes the reducing tee easy to handle and install. Installers benefit from faster assembly, reduced fatigue, and simplified alignment while achieving professional-grade, pressure-rated connections. Its clean white finish integrates seamlessly with standard PVC piping, maintaining a neat and professional system appearance.

Overall, the Westlake Pipe & Fittings 401133 1″ x 1″ x 1.5″ Socket PVC Reducing Tee delivers a durable, versatile, and easy-to-install solution for three-way connections with a larger branch. Its high-quality PVC construction, corrosion resistance, and secure socket connections make it a trusted component for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications.
