It transitions from a 1-1\/2 inch female thread on one end to a 1-inch female thread on the other, allowing plumbers and pipefitters to reduce pipe diameter inline without additional fittings. The malleable iron construction delivers high tensile strength, and the black finish provides resistance to water, air, and steam. National Pipe Thread (NPT) form on both ends ensures a tight, reliable seal in standard threaded installations. This coupling ships as an individual unit and weighs 0.9 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for residential and commercial piping applications where a threaded iron pipe system requires an inline diameter change. Typical installation scenarios include water supply lines, air distribution, steam systems, and general industrial piping. It is well-suited for mechanical rooms, boiler connections, and utility piping where NPT fittings are standard practice. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces from 1-1\/2 inch to 1 inch female NPT thread in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for high tensile strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish resists water, air, and steam corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNational Pipe Thread (NPT) form on both ends for a tight, leak-resistant seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually — no minimum order beyond one unit\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 for standard NPT threaded iron pipe systems.

Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten — hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench for final make-up to avoid cracking the fitting.\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: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches NPT (female)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch NPT (female)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: National Pipe Thread (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 pounds\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: 8700134607\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344931389746,"sku":"8700134607","price":23.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547420.jpg?v=1782045927","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-8700134607-black-iron-reducing-coupling-1-1-2-x-1-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
