Asc Engineered Solutions 2XE.BMC Pipe Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 2XE.BMC is a malleable iron pipe reducing coupling designed to connect pipes of two different diameters in a threaded piping system. With a 2-inch by 3/4-inch nominal size and female NPT (FNPT) threading on both ends, this fitting steps down pipe size within a run without the need for additional adapters. Rated at 150 lb, it is built for standard-pressure gas and liquid piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction, system modifications, or repair work where pipe diameter transitions are required.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems where a 2-inch to 3/4-inch transition is needed. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications, making this fitting a common choice on natural gas and propane supply lines. It is manufactured domestically and conforms to typical 150 lb malleable iron fitting standards used throughout the trade.

Key Features

• 2-inch by 3/4-inch nominal reducing size for in-line diameter transitions
• Female NPT (FNPT) threading on both ends for standard threaded pipe connections
• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for gas and liquid service
• Malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance
• Black finish compatible with gas piping system requirements
• Domestic manufacture

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 150 lb malleable iron threaded piping systems requiring a 2-inch to 3/4-inch nominal pipe reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation of threaded malleable iron fittings should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before beginning work. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack the fitting or damage threads.
