Asc Engineered Solutions 2X1.NB Hex Head Pipe Bushing

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 2X1.NB is a hex head pipe bushing designed to reduce a 2-inch female threaded port down to a 1-inch male threaded connection. Constructed from cast iron with a galvanized finish, this bushing is built to handle 125 lb pressure-class service in standard plumbing and piping systems. The MNPT x FNPT end style allows direct threaded engagement without adapters. The hex head profile provides a reliable wrench flat for installation and removal. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and commercial piping runs where pipe size transitions are required.

This bushing is suited for use in low-pressure water, gas, and general-purpose piping systems that call for a 125 lb class cast iron galvanized fitting. The 2-inch to 1-inch nominal size reduction is a common transition in supply lines, branch takeoffs, and distribution manifolds. Domestic manufacture supports projects with buy-domestic sourcing requirements. The galvanized coating provides added corrosion resistance for exposed or damp installation environments.

Key Features

• 2-inch to 1-inch nominal size reduction in a single hex head fitting
• MNPT x FNPT end style for direct threaded pipe connections
• 125 lb pressure class cast iron construction
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in damp or exposed environments
• Hex head profile for positive wrench engagement during installation
• Domestically manufactured to support project sourcing requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard service fitting for 125 lb class cast iron threaded piping systems requiring a 2-inch to 1-inch nominal pipe reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before engagement. Use a pipe wrench or adjustable wrench on the hex head to achieve a proper seal without over-torquing the fitting.
