Aqualine GHXB-4020 Threaded Galvanized Bushing 4x2 in

Product Description

The AQUALINE GHXB-4020 is a threaded galvanized steel bushing designed to reduce a 4-inch female pipe thread to a 2-inch male pipe thread. It provides a secure, corrosion-resistant connection point in piping systems where a reduction between two threaded sections is required. The galvanized finish offers protection against rust in wet or outdoor environments. At 3.88 pounds, the bushing is built for durability in demanding plumbing and mechanical applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This bushing is suited for use in residential and commercial piping systems, including water supply, drainage, and general-purpose fluid handling applications. It is used wherever a 4-inch threaded pipe or fitting must transition to a 2-inch threaded connection. The galvanized construction makes it appropriate for above-ground installations, outdoor environments, and applications where moisture exposure is a routine concern.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 4-inch and 2-inch NPT threaded pipe systems in plumbing and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before beginning work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before tightening. Use a pipe wrench to achieve a secure fit without overtightening, which can crack the fitting or damage mating threads.
