Asc Engineered Solutions 361334303 Threaded Hex Bushing

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 361334303 is a forged steel threaded hex bushing designed to reduce pipe connections from a 2.5-inch female thread to a 1.5-inch male thread. Rated at 3000 lb pressure class, this bushing is built for high-pressure piping systems where a reliable, leak-resistant threaded reduction is required. Weighing 1.97 pounds, it is a solid, heavy-duty fitting suitable for industrial and commercial piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting as part of threaded pipe assemblies in systems requiring a reduction between two NPT-threaded pipe sizes.

This hex bushing is used in high-pressure threaded piping systems across commercial, industrial, and mechanical applications. The hex head profile allows for standard wrench installation, making it practical for tight spaces and production piping work. Typical applications include steam, water, oil, and gas piping systems where a 3000 lb class threaded fitting is specified. The forged steel construction makes it appropriate for demanding service conditions where cast fittings are not acceptable per system specifications.

Key Features

• Forged steel construction for high-strength, high-pressure service
• 3000 lb pressure class rating for demanding piping applications
• Hex head profile allows wrench tightening for reliable installation
• Reduces 2.5-inch female thread to 1.5-inch male thread in a single fitting
• Threaded connection type for quick assembly into NPT piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3000 lb class threaded forged steel piping systems requiring a 2.5-inch to 1.5-inch NPT reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as ASME B16.11 and local piping codes. Depressurize and isolate the piping system fully before installing or replacing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads prior to assembly. Do not over-torque, as doing so may damage the threads or the fitting body.
