Machined from rough brass, this fitting reduces pipe size within a threaded plumbing assembly. It meets the lead-free requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for potable water systems where lead content compliance is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when transitioning between two different threaded pipe sizes in a pressurized line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a threaded pipe run changes from a larger nominal diameter to a smaller one. Typical applications include supply line transitions, fixture rough-in work, and branch line reductions in copper or steel threaded systems. The 1\/2-inch to 1\/4-inch reduction is common in water supply, compressed air, and similar fluid-handling assemblies. This fitting ships in a package quantity of 5 units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces from 1\/2-inch FIP to 1\/4-inch FIP in a single threaded fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRough brass construction for durability in threaded pipe assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free compliant per Public Law 111-380, suitable for potable water use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard female-to-female thread configuration for inline installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded replacement fitting for residential and commercial plumbing systems using standard NPT female pipe thread connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male pipe threads before assembly. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as excessive force can crack the fitting body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches Female Iron Pipe (FIP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches Female Iron Pipe (FIP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rough Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Free Compliance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes, meets Public Law 111-380\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANDERSON METALS CORP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 738119-0804\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANDERSON METALS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51557766955314,"sku":"738119-0804","price":40.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b3d2ebc3a5c546d682d49b1fb7b2c9a8.jpg?v=1786394656","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anderson-metals-corp-738119-0804-brass-reducing-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
