Anderson Metals -11089-6 Brass Pipe Bushing 1/8x3/4

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS -11089-6 is a brass pipe bushing designed to reduce a 3/4-inch female NPT port down to a 1/8-inch male NPT connection. Bushings of this type are standard threaded fittings used to adapt between two different pipe sizes within the same NPT thread system. The 1/8 x 3/4 inch size makes it a common component in low-pressure gas, water, and instrumentation lines. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this fitting when connecting smaller-diameter gauges, sensors, or branch lines to larger threaded ports.

This bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical systems where a threaded size reduction is required at a tee, valve, or manifold. Typical applications include connecting pressure gauges, drain taps, and small-diameter supply lines to larger pipe assemblies. The FNPT x MNPT end configuration allows it to thread directly into a female port and accept a male fitting on the smaller end without additional adapters.

Key Features

• Reduces a 3/4-inch FNPT port to a 1/8-inch MNPT connection
• Brass construction offers corrosion resistance in water and gas service
• Standard NPT threads for compatibility with common pipe and fitting systems
• Compact bushing profile fits tight spaces in manifolds and valve bodies
• Sold in a package quantity of 2

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded brass pipe bushing suitable for use in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC, and instrumentation piping systems where a 3/4-inch FNPT to 1/8-inch MNPT size reduction is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before threading in or removing any fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before installation. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as the material is susceptible to thread damage from excessive torque.
