It features a 3\/4-inch male thread on the larger end and a 3\/8-inch female thread on the smaller end, allowing a smooth transition between two different pipe diameters. This fitting is galvanized for corrosion resistance and is suited for use in plumbing, mechanical, and light industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this fitting as part of standard threaded iron pipe assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in residential and commercial piping applications where a threaded reduction is needed between a 3\/4-inch line and a 3\/8-inch branch or connection point. It is commonly installed in water supply, gas distribution, and other ferrous pipe systems that call for malleable iron fittings. The hex profile allows easy wrench engagement during installation, making it suitable for tight spaces where standard wrenching access is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction provides durability and resistance to impact in threaded piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish adds corrosion resistance for longevity in wet or humid environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch male thread on the larger end, 3\/8-inch female thread on the smaller end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex outer profile allows secure wrench grip during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets Federal Spec WW-P-471-B, ANSI B-16.14 for dimensions, and ANSI B-2.1 for pipe threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard threaded malleable iron pipe systems using 3\/4-inch and 3\/8-inch NPT connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC and IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Galvanized Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarger Thread (Male)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmaller Thread (Female)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fed.
