The larger end carries a 1\/2 inch male thread and the smaller end carries a 1\/4 inch female thread. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in standard plumbing and piping systems. This fitting weighs 0.09 pounds and is sold as a single unit. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of bushing during routine pipe assembly and repair work across residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for threaded pipe assemblies in water distribution, general plumbing, and low-pressure piping systems. Its malleable iron construction allows it to handle the stress of installation and minor flexing without cracking. The hex profile accepts a standard wrench for straightforward tightening. It is appropriate for use in standard threaded iron pipe systems where a reduction from 1\/2 inch to 1\/4 inch is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for durability and resistance to mechanical stress\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish for corrosion resistance in standard piping environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch male thread on the larger end, 1\/4 inch female thread on the smaller end\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex profile allows wrench engagement for secure installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets Federal Specification WW-P-471-B, ANSI B-16.14 dimensional standards, and ANSI B-2.1 pipe thread standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement fitting for standard threaded malleable iron pipe systems requiring a 1\/2 inch to 1\/4 inch reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLicensed plumbers install this fitting using a pipe wrench or adjustable wrench on the hex body. Always shut off and depressurize the pipe system before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly in accordance with IPC guidelines. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron threads can be damaged by excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Galvanized Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size (Male)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size (Female)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.09 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: Federal Specification WW-P-471-B, ANSI B-16.14, ANSI B-2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\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: 8700130506\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344393437490,"sku":"8700130506","price":18.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547367.jpg?v=1782034898","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700130506-hex-galvanized-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
