Anvil International Inc 8700131454 Galvanized Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700131454 is a galvanized hex bushing designed to reduce pipe thread connections from a 2-inch female thread to a 1-1/2-inch male thread. Hex bushings are a standard fitting in plumbing and mechanical piping systems where pipe size transitions are required within a threaded connection. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited to water supply, drain, and general mechanical piping applications. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial systems.

This hex bushing is used in threaded pipe assemblies where a concentric reduction is needed between two different pipe sizes. It is appropriate for water supply lines, low-pressure gas distribution piping, and general mechanical systems that use standard NPT threaded iron or steel pipe. The fitting threads directly into a 2-inch female-threaded fitting or pipe end, accepting a 1-1/2-inch male-threaded pipe or fitting on the outlet side. It is sold in a package quantity of 20 units per carton.

Key Features

• 2-inch female NPT inlet to 1-1/2-inch male NPT outlet concentric reduction
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and mechanical piping environments
• Hex body design allows wrench engagement for proper torque during installation
• Standard threaded fitting compatible with iron and steel NPT pipe systems
• Sold in a package quantity of 20 units per carton

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service fitting for threaded iron and steel pipe systems using 2-inch to 1-1/2-inch NPT connections in plumbing and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads before assembly. Use a pipe wrench on the hex body to tighten the fitting — do not overtighten, as this can crack the fitting or damage mating threads. Shut off water supply and depressurize the line before beginning any fitting replacement.
