This type of reducing bushing is a standard fitting used in low-pressure gas, steam, air, and water piping systems. The hex body provides wrench flats for secure installation with common hand tools. It meets Federal Specification WW-P-471-B and conforms to ANSI B-16.14 for dimensions and ANSI B-2.1 for pipe threads. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC techs regularly use this fitting when connecting differently sized piped components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a threaded pipe size reduction is needed in-line without adding a coupling and nipple combination. Typical install scenarios include gas appliance drops, compressed air lines, steam heating systems, and general water distribution piping. The black iron material is appropriate for gas piping per applicable codes and for non-potable water applications. Sold individually as each unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable black iron construction for durability in gas, steam, air, and water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch male NPT to 3\/8-inch female NPT reducing configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body design accommodates standard wrench installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComplies with Federal Specification WW-P-471-B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDimensional conformance to ANSI B-16.14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread form per ANSI B-2.1 for reliable sealing with standard NPT fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard NPT threaded pipe systems requiring a 1\/2-inch to 3\/8-inch reduction in malleable black iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes including IFGC for gas piping applications. Shut off and depressurize the line before installing or replacing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for the service medium before assembly. Do not overtighten; hand-snug and then wrench-tighten to seat threads without stressing the fitting body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Black Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch Male NPT x 3\/8 inch Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.065 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Federal Spec WW-P-471-B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimension Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B-16.14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B-2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 8700129052\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346869649714,"sku":"8700129052","price":18.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547304.jpg?v=1782092985","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700129052-hex-bushing-1-2x3-8","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
