Constructed from malleable iron with a galvanized finish, this bushing provides corrosion resistance in demanding plumbing and piping applications. Rated at 150 lb, it is built to handle standard working pressures in low-pressure water, air, and gas systems. The hexagonal head allows for secure wrench engagement during installation, reducing the risk of slippage or fitting damage. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as a standard threaded reducer in both new construction and retrofit piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, compressed air distribution, and gas distribution systems where a reduction from a 1-1\/2 inch to a 1-1\/4 inch threaded connection is required. The galvanized malleable iron construction makes it appropriate for above-ground and indoor installations where moderate corrosion resistance is needed. It is manufactured domestically and meets standard 150 lb class fitting requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex head design allows full wrench engagement for controlled installation torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch MNPT inlet reduces to 1-1\/4 inch FNPT outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e150 lb pressure class malleable iron construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for standard piping environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestic manufacture to standard threaded fitting dimensions\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 150 lb class malleable iron threaded piping systems requiring a 1-1\/2 inch to 1-1\/4 inch NPT reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for the system type. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; use the hex head for controlled wrench engagement only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 x 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT x FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 lb\u003c\/li\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\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Domestic\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: 1DX1B.NB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524820304178,"sku":"GALBUSH112114","price":22.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ae2ba6f05e6c74d0e105bbbe4522590f_dafd255c-6546-4609-a782-a536135dfc5c.jpg?v=1785458539","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-1dx1b-nb-hex-head-pipe-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
