Home Depot usually carries stuff like that. Most other stores don't have pressure rated fittings.

My Home-Depot has about everything in Sch 40 upto 1.5" then theirs a few 2" NSF-PW parts missing and only about (3) 3" and 4" NSF-PW

I'm lucky because they do carry 3" and 4" NSF-PW caps so I at least don't have to get ripped off when I buy thoose.

Try Home Depot, Lowes, or a local sprinkler store.

Yeah, Home Depot and Ace around the bay area only have up to 2" pipe and fittings but Home Depot doesn't have reducers very often. You can get any reducer between 1/2" and 2" at Ace though.
