Asc Engineered Solutions 810085811 Reducing Coupling 1/2x1/8

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 810085811 is a black malleable iron reducing coupling designed for joining threaded pipe sections of different diameters in low-pressure piping systems. The coupling connects a 1/2-inch male thread to a 1/8-inch male thread, making it a practical reducer fitting for gas, air, or compatible fluid distribution lines. Weighing 0.12 pounds, it is a compact, durable component finished in a black coating that provides basic corrosion resistance. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of coupling when reducing pipe size at a branch connection or transitioning between supply and instrument ports.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a threaded reduction from 1/2 inch to 1/8 inch is required. Common scenarios include gas line branch connections, compressed air distribution, and instrumentation port fittings where a small-diameter gauge or sensor taps into a larger supply line. The malleable iron construction handles typical mechanical stress encountered during installation and service without cracking under torque.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and resistance to mechanical stress
• Black coating finish for basic corrosion protection
• Reduces from 1/2-inch to 1/8-inch threaded connection in a single fitting
• Lightweight at 0.12 pounds for easy handling and installation
• Threaded ends allow standard NPT assembly without special tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation reducing coupling for standard NPT threaded piping systems requiring a 1/2-inch to 1/8-inch reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten to hand-tight plus wrench turns as appropriate for the pipe material and service. Follow applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements for the intended service.
