At 3\/4 inch by 1\/4 inch, this bushing provides a compact, threaded transition between pipe sections in gas, air, or compatible fluid piping systems. The hex body allows for standard wrench engagement during installation. Weighing 0.18 pounds, it is a durable, low-profile fitting suited for use by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians in both residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is commonly used in gas distribution piping, HVAC refrigerant-adjacent piping, compressed air lines, and general plumbing systems where a 3\/4 inch to 1\/4 inch threaded reduction is required. It is a straightforward mechanical fitting used wherever a threaded pipe size step-down is needed at a joint, valve, or equipment connection port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction for strength and durability in standard pipe applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded hex body design allows secure wrench engagement for proper torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch female to 1\/4 inch male threaded reduction in a single compact fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.18 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for use in gas, air, and compatible fluid piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hex bushing for standard threaded pipe systems requiring a 3\/4 inch to 1\/4 inch reduction in black steel pipe configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping applications. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for the specific service medium before threading the bushing into place. Do not overtighten by using pipe wrenches beyond hand-tight plus standard turns, as black steel fittings can crack if excessive force is applied to mating threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch x 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded Hex Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 318905684\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233945518386,"sku":"0318905684","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307630684.jpg?v=1780112824","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-318905684-black-steel-hex-bushing-3-4-x-1-4-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
