Malleable iron construction provides the ductility and strength needed for threaded pipe assemblies in both water and gas distribution systems. The hot-dip galvanized finish adds corrosion resistance, making this bushing suitable for exposed or mildly corrosive environments. Plumbers and pipefitters use this fitting to connect piping of two different nominal sizes without cutting or re-threading existing pipe runs. Meets Federal Specification WW-P-471-B, ANSI B16.14 for dimensions, and ANSI B2.1 for pipe threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, gas piping, and general industrial pipe systems where a threaded size reduction is required. The 1\/2-inch end engages the larger female-threaded port, and the 1\/4-inch male end connects to the smaller downstream fitting or valve. Common applications include gas appliance connections, air line drops, and water distribution branches where nominal pipe sizes change between sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for strength and resistance to cracking under vibration or movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot-dip galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in exposed or damp installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch male NPT x 1\/4-inch female NPT threaded configuration for inline size reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompliant with ANSI B16.14 dimensional standards and ANSI B2.1 pipe thread standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets Federal Specification WW-P-471-B for ferrous plugs, bushings, and locknuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard NPT threaded hex bushing compatible with 1\/2-inch female-threaded pipe fittings and 1\/4-inch male-threaded pipe components in galvanized or black iron threaded piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before installing or removing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not over-torque the fitting, as malleable iron is strong but not intended for high-torque impact wrench application in close quarters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable galvanized iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT threaded, hex bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMale Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFemale Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.085 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: Federal Spec WW-P-471-B, ANSI B16.14, ANSI B2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: ANVIL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8700130506\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51786864329010,"sku":"8700130506","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/298065530832ead667991d3af0665dad.jpg?v=1789207558","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anvil-8700130506-galvanized-hex-bushing-1-2x1-4","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
