This fitting provides a durable, threaded transition between two pipe sizes in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. Cast iron construction delivers the strength needed for demanding mechanical and fluid-handling applications. The hex profile allows for wrench engagement during installation and removal, making it straightforward to achieve a proper seal. At 5.73 pounds, this is a heavy-duty fitting built for long service life in commercial and industrial environments. It is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing systems, industrial piping, and HVAC water or steam distribution lines where a 6-inch to 5-inch pipe size reduction is required. The black coating is standard for non-potable water, gas, and steam service applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically specify and install fittings of this type in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and process piping runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-inch female thread to 5-inch male thread reduction for direct inline pipe size transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast iron construction for high strength in mechanical and fluid-handling environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex profile provides wrench flats for secure installation and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack coating suitable for gas, steam, and non-potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDomestically produced for consistent dimensional and material quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighs 5.73 pounds, indicating substantial wall thickness and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hex bushing for 6-inch to 5-inch threaded pipe systems in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Shut off all fluid or gas supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads prior to assembly. Use a pipe wrench on the hex flats to tighten the fitting — do not use pliers or tools that could damage the fitting body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches x 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.73 pounds\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: 318909249\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233235796274,"sku":"0318909249","price":111.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307630672.jpg?v=1780094984","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-318909249-cast-iron-hex-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
