Anvil International Inc 8700129854 Hex Reducing Bushing

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700129854 is a black hex reducing bushing designed to transition pipe connections from a 2-inch female thread to a 1-inch male thread. The hex head allows for standard wrench engagement during installation, providing reliable torque control without the need for specialty tooling. This type of reducing bushing is a standard fitting in threaded pipe systems and is used by plumbers and pipefitters to reduce pipe size within a run. The black finish indicates a malleable iron or black pipe-compatible fitting suited for gas, air, and water distribution applications in commercial and residential settings.

This hex reducing bushing is used in threaded pipe assemblies where a size reduction is needed inline. Common applications include gas distribution lines, compressed air systems, and general plumbing rough-in work. The 2-inch to 1-inch reduction makes it a frequently specified fitting in mechanical rooms, equipment connections, and service branch lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this fitting as part of threaded black iron pipe systems.
