Built from malleable iron with a galvanized finish, it transitions from a 2-inch nominal pipe to a 3\/4-inch nominal pipe using female NPT (FNPT) threads on both ends. Rated at 150 lb, this coupling is suited for moderate-pressure applications in water, gas, and general mechanical piping systems. It is a domestically produced fitting intended for installation by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial or residential systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is commonly used in plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and general industrial piping where a threaded step-down connection between a 2-inch and 3\/4-inch line is required. The galvanized malleable iron construction provides corrosion resistance for installations in wet or humid environments. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit work where threaded connections are the specified joining method.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces from 2-inch nominal to 3\/4-inch nominal in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFemale NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150 lb pressure rating suitable for general-service piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized malleable iron construction resists corrosion in wet environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDomestically manufactured fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard service fitting compatible with 150 lb class malleable iron threaded piping systems using FNPT connections at 2-inch and 3\/4-inch nominal pipe sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the connection. Do not over-tighten threaded joints, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 x 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: FNPT (Female National Pipe Taper) both ends\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\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Domestic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 2XE.NMC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524705976626,"sku":"GALRED234","price":42.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2d08f1465c1c137cb6b2f48ae7bc1b5e_9ebdb11d-07b1-4099-a213-46a75910a8f7.jpg?v=1785455899","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-2xe-nmc-reducing-coupling-2x3-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
