Product details
TF5531BV is a PVC reducer fitting in Trovac's Vaculine central vacuum tubing line, stepping a 2 in. pipe run down to 1-21/32 in. It drops a standard 2 in. run to the smaller bore some valves, inlets or accessory connections call for, without cutting or reworking the larger pipe already run through the wall.
- Part: TF5531BV
- Reduction: 2 in. to 1-21/32 in.
- System: Vaculine PVC central vacuum tubing
- Type: reducer fitting
The fitting cements into Vaculine PVC tubing with standard central vacuum solvent cement, the same way a straight coupling or elbow in the same line does, giving an airtight joint across the size change rather than a mechanical or friction fit that could work loose under vacuum over time.
Measure the pipe on both sides of the transition before ordering, since a reducer only seats correctly when both ends match the tubing actually run in the wall, and a fitting that is close but not exact will leak air at the joint rather than pull a clean seal. Clean and dry both pipe ends before cementing, since solvent cement does not bond well over dust or moisture left in the pipe, and a rushed joint here is a common source of a slow leak that only shows up as weaker suction weeks later.
