Anvil International Inc 8700131355 Hex Bushing 2x1

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700131355 is a galvanized hex bushing designed to reduce a 2-inch female pipe thread to a 1-inch male pipe thread. Hex bushings serve as threaded reducers in pipe assemblies, allowing technicians to connect pipes or fittings of different sizes within the same run. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for a range of plumbing and mechanical piping applications. This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on water distribution, drain systems, or general-purpose piping.

This hex bushing is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems where a reduction in pipe diameter is needed at a threaded connection point. The external hex profile allows for wrench engagement during installation, making it straightforward to achieve a secure, leak-free joint. Common install scenarios include branch connections, fixture supply lines, and mechanical room piping assemblies where different pipe sizes must be joined.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before threading or unthreading any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can crack fittings or damage threads.
