Listed PVC fitting?

[The Iceman]

One of my co-workers called me today and asked if I had ever seen a 3/4" to 1/2" PVC change over type coupling. I didn't see it for myself, and have never used or seen anything like that for PVC.
Is this a listed PVC fitting? If so does anyone know of a link I can check out to learn more?

The unlisted way is to slip the bell end of the 1/2" PVC into the 3/4" coupling, or slip the bell end of the 3/4" PVC into the 1" coupling

.....and cover with dirt.

.....and cover with dirt.

Why?

They cement together perfectly and all materials are listed PVC.

Good point.

....but you said it was the unlisted way.

Word games...

That way adds more excitement in pushing the fish tape through the conduit.:grin: "If it was easy, everyone would do it"

The couplings fit perfectly into each other to size up or down also. Glue up!

Actually a snake goes by a bell end pretty well.

The only time I swapped sizes in the middle of a PVC run was for a single gang floor box for a receptacle.

The specs called for 3/4" PVC and we ran that out of the box but ran out of 3/4" before getting out of the slab so I used 1" to complete it to the wall.

for larger pipe, I have drilled a hole and taped a ping pong ball on the end of the fishtape.
