Overview
The Midland 55766 is a reducer slip bushing that drops a 1 in. PVC socket down to a 1/2 in. socket. It glues inside a 1 in. fitting and accepts 1/2 in. pipe, letting you connect smaller pipe to a larger fitting without changing the whole assembly. The white Schedule 40 PVC body is for solvent-weld joints.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a slip bushing install?
It solvent-welds inside the larger 1 in. socket, then the smaller 1/2 in. pipe glues into the bushing.
Is this Schedule 40 or 80?
It is Schedule 40 PVC, intended for standard water and chemical service.
Can I thread into it?
No. Both ends are smooth sockets for solvent cement, not threads.
What parts cross to it?
437130 and 4880K314 are listed industry crossovers; match the 1 in. x 1/2 in. reduction to confirm.
