Asc Engineered Solutions 319908562 Galvanized Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 319908562 is a threaded galvanized hex bushing designed to reduce pipe size in threaded iron piping systems. This domestically manufactured fitting measures 3.5 inches by 2.5 inches and is constructed from iron with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance in wet and exposed environments. The hex body allows for wrench engagement during installation, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection. Plumbers and pipefitters use this bushing to transition between two different pipe diameters in a single threaded fitting without adding extra nipples or couplings to the assembly.

This bushing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC condensate and drain piping, fire protection rough-in, and general industrial pipe assemblies where threaded iron fittings are specified. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for applications exposed to moisture or requiring corrosion protection. At 2.61 pounds, it is a substantial, full-iron fitting rather than a lightweight import substitute.

Key Features

• Iron construction provides strength and durability in threaded pipe systems
• Galvanized coating offers corrosion resistance for wet or exposed installations
• 3.5 inch by 2.5 inch size handles large-diameter pipe reduction in a single fitting
• Hex body allows wrench engagement for proper torque and a secure, leak-free joint
• Domestic manufacture

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for threaded iron pipe systems using 3.5 inch to 2.5 inch reducing connections per standard NPT thread specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water or fluid system before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten using a pipe wrench on the hex body. Do not over-tighten, as iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
