Asc Engineered Solutions 319907440 Galvanized Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 319907440 is a galvanized iron hex bushing designed to reduce pipe connections from a 1.5-inch female thread to a 1-inch male thread. This fitting is used in threaded pipe systems to transition between two different pipe sizes without additional adapters. The hex body allows for standard wrench engagement during installation. It is constructed from iron with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in water supply, gas distribution, and general industrial piping applications.

This hex bushing is suited for residential and commercial piping systems where a threaded size reduction is required. It is a domestically produced fitting, making it a common stock item for plumbing contractors, HVAC installers working with water or gas lines, and industrial maintenance crews. The 1.5-inch by 1-inch size covers one of the most frequently encountered bushing transitions in standard trade work.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded pipe systems. Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the line before installation. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Tighten to snug with a pipe wrench, taking care not to overtighten iron fittings, which can crack under excess torque.
