Asc Engineered Solutions 818907818 Black Malleable Bushing 2x3/4

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 818907818 is a black malleable iron pipe bushing designed to reduce a 2-inch female fitting down to a 3/4-inch male thread. Malleable iron construction provides the ductility and strength required for threaded pipe assemblies in gas, air, and low-pressure fluid systems. The black oxide coating resists corrosion and is standard for gas-service piping. This bushing is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians during new construction and retrofit work wherever a concentric threaded reduction is needed in a black iron piping system.

This hex bushing fits standard NPT threaded black iron pipe systems commonly found in residential and light commercial gas distribution, compressed air lines, and hydronic heating installations. The 2-inch by 3/4-inch reduction size is a common configuration used when transitioning from a main line down to a branch supply or equipment connection. It seats directly into any 2-inch female NPT fitting and accepts any 3/4-inch male NPT fitting or valve.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction offers greater impact resistance and ductility compared to cast iron
• Black oxide coating suitable for gas-service and general-purpose piping applications
• 2-inch female NPT inlet reduces to 3/4-inch male NPT outlet for concentric in-line reduction
• Standard hex body allows wrench engagement for proper thread makeup torque
• Threaded NPT connection type compatible with standard pipe tape or pipe dope sealing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT black iron threaded piping systems in gas, air, and low-pressure fluid service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC requirements for gas piping, or IPC requirements for fluid piping. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before disassembling or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten malleable iron fittings, as excessive force can crack the fitting body.
