Anvil International Inc 8700134557 Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700134557 is a black reducing coupling designed to connect pipes of two different sizes in a threaded piping system. This fitting transitions a 1.5-inch pipe to a 1.25-inch pipe, making it a practical solution when reducing pipe diameter is required along a run. It is finished in black, consistent with standard black malleable iron pipe fittings used in gas distribution, compressed air, and general industrial piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and commercial piping systems where a threaded reduction is needed between pipe segments. Common applications include natural gas supply lines, low-pressure steam systems, compressed air distribution, and general fluid conveyance. The 1.5-inch to 1.25-inch reduction is a frequently encountered size transition in both new construction and retrofit work. This fitting ships in a package quantity of 10 units, making it convenient for contractors stocking job-site materials.

Key Features

• Reduces from 1.5 inches to 1.25 inches for inline pipe diameter transitions
• Black finish typical of standard black iron pipe fittings
• Threaded ends for secure, leak-resistant connections
• Sold in package quantities of 10 units per package

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit reducing coupling for threaded black iron pipe systems using 1.5-inch and 1.25-inch nominal pipe sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC depending on the fluid being conveyed. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before hand-tightening and then wrenching to a snug fit. Do not over-torque threaded fittings, as this can crack the fitting or damage mating threads.
