Anvil International Inc 8700130704 Galvanized Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700130704 is a galvanized hex bushing designed to reduce a 3/4-inch female pipe thread to a 1/2-inch male pipe thread. Hex bushings are standard threaded fittings used to transition between two different pipe sizes within the same run. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing piping systems. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on low-pressure threaded pipe assemblies in both residential and light commercial applications.

This hex bushing is used in situations where a larger-threaded port or fitting must accept a smaller-diameter pipe or valve. Common install scenarios include connecting 1/2-inch gas supply lines into 3/4-inch manifold ports, reducing down at shutoff valves, or stepping down within a threaded black or galvanized iron pipe system. It ships in a package quantity of 100 units per carton, making it well suited for wholesale trade use or service vehicle stocking.
