Anvil International Inc 8700129805 Black Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700129805 is a black hex bushing designed to reduce a larger threaded pipe opening to a smaller one. This fitting measures 2 inches on the male end and 3/4 inch on the female end, making it a standard reducing bushing for threaded black iron pipe systems. The hex profile allows for secure wrench engagement during installation. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this type of fitting in gas distribution, steam, and water piping systems where a threaded reduction is required at a joint or fitting connection.

This hex bushing is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications. It is commonly installed in gas lines, low-pressure steam systems, and general-purpose black iron pipe assemblies. The 2-inch male NPT threads on the exterior and 3/4-inch female NPT threads on the interior allow it to seat directly into standard pipe fittings, valves, or tees without additional adapters.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded black iron pipe systems. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and verify zero pressure in the line before disassembling any threaded connection. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for the intended service medium before threading the bushing into place. Work must comply with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes, including IFGC requirements when used in gas service.
