Anvil International Inc 8700129706 Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700129706 is a black hex bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/2 inch female threaded pipe connection down to a 1-1/4 inch male threaded outlet. Hex bushings are a standard pipe fitting used to connect two sections of threaded pipe where a reduction in diameter is required. The black iron finish makes this fitting appropriate for gas distribution, steam, and general industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial applications.

This hex bushing is suited for use in threaded black iron piping systems where a reducer fitting is needed at a junction point. Typical applications include gas supply lines, steam systems, and compressed air distribution. The hex profile allows standard wrench engagement for secure installation and proper torque without slipping. This fitting is sold individually as a single unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC, or IPC requirements depending on the service. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
