It is used to reduce a 2-inch female threaded port down to a 1-inch male threaded connection using a standard MNPT x FNPT end configuration. The hex head design allows a wrench to be applied directly to the bushing body for secure installation without slipping. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in gas, water, and steam distribution systems where pipe diameter reductions are required at a threaded joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications. The 2-inch nominal FNPT inlet accepts a standard 2-inch threaded pipe or fitting, while the 1-inch nominal MNPT outlet transitions to a smaller-diameter run. Cast iron construction and a 125 lb pressure class make it appropriate for low-pressure steam, gas distribution, and water supply systems where threaded cast iron fittings are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex head body allows wrench engagement for secure, leak-free tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast iron construction rated for 125 lb service class\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMNPT x FNPT thread configuration for standard threaded pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 x 1 inch nominal size reduces pipe diameter at a single threaded joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for gas and water piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestic manufacture\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 125 lb cast iron threaded piping systems using 2-inch to 1-inch reducing connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable code requirements such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the supply line completely before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten with a pipe wrench applied to the hex head. Do not overtighten cast iron fittings, as the material is brittle and susceptible to cracking under excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 x 1 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 Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Head\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: 2X1.BB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51523353477426,"sku":"BLBUSH21","price":18.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ae2ba6f05e6c74d0e105bbbe4522590f.jpg?v=1785440529","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-2x1-bb-hex-head-pipe-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
