Anvil International Inc 8700131108 Hex Bushing 1.5x0.75 in

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700131108 is a galvanized hex bushing designed to reduce pipe thread size from a 1-1/2-inch female thread to a 3/4-inch male thread. Hex bushings of this type are standard fittings used to connect pipes or components of different thread sizes within a threaded piping system. The external hex provides a wrench flat for secure installation and removal without pipe slippage. Galvanized construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general industrial piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This hex bushing is suited for residential and commercial piping installations where a threaded pipe size reduction is required inline. Common applications include water supply lines, sprinkler system headers, compressed air distribution, and general mechanical piping. The 1-1/2-inch to 3/4-inch reduction is one of the most frequently encountered size transitions in trade plumbing work. This fitting ships in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for stocking service trucks or job-site material carts.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for the service type. Shut off the water supply or isolate the gas or air line and relieve pressure before beginning work. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the connection. Do not over-tighten threaded fittings, as this can crack the fitting or damage mating threads.
