Anvil International Inc 8700129201 Black Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700129201 is a black hex reducing bushing designed to connect pipes of two different sizes within a threaded piping system. It features a 3/4-inch male NPT end and a 1/2-inch female NPT end, allowing a reduction in line size without the need for additional fittings. The hex body provides a flat surface for wrench engagement during installation. This bushing is commonly installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on low-pressure fluid or gas distribution systems in both residential and commercial settings.

This hex reducing bushing is suited for use in threaded black iron piping systems, including gas distribution lines, steam systems, and general-purpose industrial piping. The black finish is standard for use in gas supply applications where galvanized fittings are not required. It is sold in packages of 100 units, making it practical for contractors stocking bulk materials for larger jobs or ongoing service work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes, including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before beginning any fitting work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or pipe tape to male threads before assembly.
