It connects a larger female-threaded pipe to a smaller male-threaded pipe, allowing trades to adapt existing runs without replacing full fittings or pipe segments. The bushing measures 2 inches by 1\/2 inch and weighs 0.64 pounds. Its galvanized iron construction provides corrosion resistance suited for water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both residential and light commercial systems where a threaded pipe size reduction is required at a junction point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is used in threaded iron pipe systems where a 2-inch female-threaded connection must be reduced to a 1\/2-inch male-threaded outlet. Typical applications include water distribution lines, compressed air systems, gas piping, and industrial process lines. The hex body allows standard pipe wrenches or adjustable wrenches to seat the fitting securely without slippage. It is domestically manufactured, making it a common choice on projects requiring domestic-origin hardware documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 2-inch female thread to 1\/2-inch male thread in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for wet and humid environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIron construction rated for standard threaded pipe service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body design allows full wrench engagement for proper torque and sealing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestically manufactured\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fitting for standard NPT threaded iron pipe systems requiring a 2-inch to 1\/2-inch reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for the intended service. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Use a pipe wrench on the hex body to tighten; avoid over-tightening, which can crack iron fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches x 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.64 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Domestic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 319907846\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233727643954,"sku":"0319907846","price":32.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307627251.jpg?v=1780107593","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-319907846-galvanized-hex-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
