This fitting transitions a 1-1\/2 inch female thread down to a 1\/2 inch male thread, making it a standard reducing bushing for threaded pipe assemblies. The black coating indicates it is not galvanized and is suited for gas piping, compressed air, and similar non-potable applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of threaded black iron piping systems in both residential and light commercial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in black iron threaded piping systems where a pipe or fitting with a 1-1\/2 inch female thread must connect to a 1\/2 inch male thread. Common applications include natural gas distribution lines, propane systems, compressed air lines, and fire suppression headers. The fitting installs wherever a reduction is needed in a threaded black iron assembly and is a frequently stocked item on service trucks and in mechanical rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces 1-1\/2 inch female thread to 1\/2 inch male thread in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack coating suitable for gas and compressed air piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction provides toughness in threaded piping assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard hex body allows use with a pipe wrench or adjustable wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.40 pounds per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement fitting for standard NPT threaded black iron piping systems in residential and commercial mechanical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable local codes and the IFGC or IPC as applicable. Shut off all gas or pressure supply and verify the line is fully depressurized before disassembling or threading any fittings. Apply a listed pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; use a backup wrench on adjacent fittings to avoid stressing connected pipe or equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.40 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 818907529\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51234010431794,"sku":"0818907529","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307631631.jpg?v=1780114891","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-818907529-malleable-bushing-1-5x0-5in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
