Rated at 150 lb, this fitting is manufactured from malleable iron with a black finish, making it well suited for use in low-pressure gas, steam, and water piping systems. The hex head profile allows a wrench to seat securely during installation, reducing the chance of fitting damage. Plumbers, pipefitters, and gas-line technicians routinely use this type of bushing when adapting between adjacent pipe sizes within a threaded piping assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is sized at 1 inch by 3\/4 inch nominal and uses a threaded end style on both the male and female connections. It is a common component in residential and light commercial plumbing and gas distribution systems where a standard 150 lb malleable iron fitting is specified. The domestic manufacture designation indicates it meets sourcing requirements for projects that require U.S.-made fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex head profile provides a secure wrench flat for installation and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150 lb pressure rating suitable for low-pressure steam, water, and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction offers durability and resistance to mechanical stress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack finish appropriate for gas piping and non-potable water applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded end style on both male and female connections for standard NPT compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDomestic manufacture for projects with U.S.-origin material requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 150 lb malleable iron threaded piping systems using 1-inch to 3\/4-inch nominal pipe size reductions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) as required by the application.
