Lasco 402-249 (402249) Schedule 40 PVC Reducing Tee – 2" Slip x 2" Slip x 1" Female Thread (FIPT)
The Lasco 402-249 is a Schedule 40 PVC reducing tee used to branch a smaller, threaded line off a 2" PVC run. It features 2" slip (socket) connections on the straight-through run for solvent-weld installation and a 1" female pipe thread (FIPT) branch outlet for a threaded connection (such as a male adapter, valve, gauge, or drain line).
Key Features
- Part Number: 402-249 (often shown as 402249)
- Fitting Type: Reducing Tee
- Material: Schedule 40 PVC
- Run Connections: 2" Slip x 2" Slip (solvent-weld sockets)
- Branch Connection: 1" Female Pipe Thread (FIPT)
- Color: White (typical for Sch 40 PVC)
- Use: Pool/spa plumbing, irrigation, and general water systems where a threaded branch is needed
Common Uses
- Adding a 1" threaded branch line off a 2" equipment pad manifold
- Connecting a threaded fitting for drains, sampling ports, small bypass lines, or accessory plumbing
- Transitioning from solvent-weld main lines to threaded components on the branch
Installation Notes
- Slip sockets: Use PVC primer and PVC cement rated for pressure plumbing; follow cure times before pressurizing.
- Threaded branch: Use PTFE thread tape and/or thread sealant on the male threads; do not over-tighten (PVC threads can crack if forced).
- Pipe stress: Support plumbing so the tee is not carrying weight or bending load (reduces leaks and cracking over time).
- Thread compatibility: 1" FIPT is NPT female thread (use a 1" male NPT fitting on the branch).

Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Dry-fit everything first to confirm alignment, spacing, and valve/handle clearance before gluing.
- Mark pipe insertion depth into each socket so joints seat fully during cementing.
- If you need to remove the threaded branch component regularly, consider using a union or true-union valve downstream for easier servicing.
- After startup, check the threaded branch for weeping; if needed, depressurize and re-seal threads (avoid tightening under pressure).
