Anvil International Inc 8700135455 Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700135455 is a galvanized reducing coupling designed to connect pipe sections of two different diameters in threaded piping systems. The fitting transitions from a 1-inch pipe on one end to a 1/2-inch pipe on the other, making it a standard solution for reducing pipe runs in water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or moderately corrosive environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of threaded iron pipe assemblies in both residential and light commercial applications.

This reducing coupling is suited for use in threaded steel pipe systems where a diameter change is required along a straight run. Typical applications include water distribution lines, low-pressure gas piping, and general-purpose mechanical systems. The fitting is sold individually and is packaged in quantities of 45 units per package, making it practical for contractors stocking commonly used reducing sizes.

Key Features

• Reduces from 1-inch to 1/2-inch pipe in a single threaded fitting
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and general mechanical environments
• Threaded ends for use in standard NPT iron pipe assemblies
• Compact reducing coupling design for straight-run diameter transitions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for threaded iron pipe systems requiring a 1-inch to 1/2-inch reducing connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded iron pipe systems. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Follow applicable codes including the IPC and IFGC for pipe jointing and fitting installation requirements.
