Asc Engineered Solutions 311086607 Reducing Coupling 3/4x1/8

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 311086607 is a galvanized malleable iron reducing coupling designed to connect pipes of two different diameters in threaded piping systems. At 3/4 inch by 1/8 inch, it steps down from a 3/4-inch line to a 1/8-inch branch or outlet. The malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance, while the galvanized coating adds corrosion protection in exposed or damp environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in gas, water, and mechanical piping systems where a threaded size reduction is required. It weighs 0.25 pounds and is domestically produced.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and gas distribution applications where NPT threaded connections are standard. The 3/4-inch by 1/8-inch size reduction is commonly found in branch takeoffs, instrument taps, gauge connections, and pilot line supply points. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers on systems that require code-compliant threaded iron fittings.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction resists impact and stress in threaded piping assemblies
• Galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for exposed or moisture-prone installations
• 3/4 inch to 1/8 inch reducing configuration for stepping down pipe diameter at a single fitting
• Domestically produced for consistent dimensional tolerancing to NPT thread standards
• Compact and lightweight at 0.25 pounds for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT threaded malleable iron piping systems in plumbing, gas, and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation 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 line before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the connection. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
