The hexagonal outer profile allows for standard wrench engagement, making installation straightforward in tight or confined spaces. This bushing meets Federal Specification WW-P-471-B and conforms to ANSI B-16.14 for dimensions and ANSI B-2.1 for pipe threads. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this fitting when transitioning between pipe sizes in ferrous piping systems. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and general-purpose pipe systems where a threaded iron reduction fitting is required. The 1-inch male end threads into a larger fitting, coupling, or valve body, while the 3\/8-inch female end accepts a smaller male-threaded pipe or fitting. Typical installation scenarios include water supply lines, compressed air systems, and natural gas distribution piping where code-compliant malleable iron fittings are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex outer profile for wrench-on installation and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch male NPT to 3\/8-inch female NPT reducing configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for durability in ferrous piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets Federal Spec WW-P-471-B, ANSI B-16.14, and ANSI B-2.1 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard NPT-threaded iron pipe systems requiring a 1-inch to 3\/8-inch threaded reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the system before installing or replacing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not overtighten; use a pipe wrench on the hex flats only and follow standard trade practice for malleable iron fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMale Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFemale Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: Federal Spec WW-P-471-B, ANSI B-16.14, ANSI B-2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: 8700130753\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346218254642,"sku":"8700130753","price":22.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547377.jpg?v=1782074263","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-8700130753-hex-galvanized-bushing-1-x-3-8-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
