Anvil 0361330103 Black Bushing 3/8x1/8 in Class 3000 Npt

Product Description

The ANVIL 0361330103 is a black threaded bushing used to reduce a 3/8-inch NPT female fitting down to a 1/8-inch NPT male connection. Manufactured from forged carbon steel with a black finish, this bushing is rated Class 3000 and meets ASME B1.20.1, ASME B16.11, ASTM A105, ASTM A182, and ASTM A350 standards. It is a standard hex-style pipe bushing suited for joining mismatched threaded pipe connections in gas, air, and liquid piping systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting during new construction and retrofit work.

This bushing is used in commercial and industrial piping systems where a threaded size reduction is required inline. Typical applications include gas distribution piping, compressed air lines, hydraulic systems, and general fluid conveyance where carbon steel fittings are specified. The Class 3000 pressure rating makes it appropriate for higher-pressure service conditions common in mechanical rooms and industrial plant environments.

Key Features

• Fitting dimensions and end connections comply with ASME B16.11
• Black finish provides basic corrosion resistance for interior and sheltered applications
• 3/8-inch female to 1/8-inch male reduction in a single compact fitting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded bushing replacement for Class 3000 NPT piping systems using forged carbon steel fittings per ASME B16.11.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable mechanical codes including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) and International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections; follow standard pipe thread engagement practices for the fitting size.
