Anvil International Inc 8700135851 Galvanized Coupling

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700135851 is a galvanized reducing coupling designed to connect pipe sections of differing diameters in threaded piping systems. This fitting transitions from a 2-inch pipe to a 1-1/2-inch pipe, providing a secure, corrosion-resistant joint. The galvanized finish offers protection against rust and oxidation, making it well-suited for water supply, HVAC hydronic, and general plumbing distribution lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this coupling as part of standard threaded steel pipe assemblies in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This reducing coupling is used in residential and commercial piping systems where a threaded steel pipe run changes diameter. Typical applications include water supply mains, fire protection branches, HVAC hydronic distribution, and industrial process piping. The 2-inch-by-1-1/2-inch reduction is a common transition size found in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and utility spaces. It ships in a package quantity of 5 units, making it practical for job-lot purchasing on multi-connection installations.

Key Features

• Galvanized finish provides corrosion and oxidation resistance for water and hydronic service
• Reduces from 2 inches to 1-1/2 inches for standard threaded pipe diameter transitions
• Threaded ends conform to standard NPT pipe thread patterns used in steel piping systems
• Sold in packages of 5 units to support multi-connection installations
• Total package weight of 7.75 pounds reflects heavy-duty steel construction

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard threaded steel pipe systems requiring a 2-inch to 1-1/2-inch diameter reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC and IFGC guidelines. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing any existing fittings or installing this coupling. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint, and tighten to a proper thread engagement using pipe wrenches. Do not overtighten, as this can crack the fitting or damage the threads.
