Anvil International Inc 8700135406 Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700135406 is a galvanized reducing coupling designed to connect pipes of two different diameters in threaded piping systems. It steps down from a 1-inch nominal pipe thread on one end to a 3/4-inch nominal pipe thread on the other. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a reduction in line size is required within a threaded iron pipe assembly.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations. It is commonly used in water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and gas piping where a threaded connection between 1-inch and 3/4-inch pipe is required. The fitting ships in a package quantity of 35 units, making it practical for contractors stocking supply for new construction or retrofit projects.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the line before making any threaded connections. Apply approved thread sealant tape or compound to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded fittings, as this can crack or deform the fitting.
