This fitting reduces a 1-1\/4-inch male-threaded connection down to a 1\/2-inch female-threaded port, allowing technicians to transition between pipe sizes within a single fitting. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in exposed or moisture-prone environments. At 0.35 pounds, it is a compact, heavy-duty fitting suited to both overhead and inline installations. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of bushing when adapting supply lines, branch connections, or equipment ports to a smaller pipe size without adding a coupling and nipple combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, fire protection, and mechanical piping systems where threaded malleable iron fittings are specified. It is typically installed at equipment inlets, pressure gauge ports, boiler trim, and distribution manifold takeoffs. The male thread on the larger end engages a 1-1\/4-inch fitting or pipe, while the female thread on the smaller end accepts a 1\/2-inch pipe or fitting. It is sold individually and is well suited to service and retrofit work requiring a single replacement fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/4-inch male thread inlet reduces to 1\/2-inch female thread outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for strength and thread integrity under torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish resists corrosion in wet and outdoor-adjacent applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex body profile accepts standard pipe wrench or adjustable wrench for installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets Federal Specification WW-P-471-B for ferrous pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions per ANSI B16.14 and pipe threads per ANSI B2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded malleable iron pipe systems using 1-1\/4-inch to 1\/2-inch reducing connections in plumbing and mechanical piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing any existing fitting or installing this bushing. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten using a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free joint without over-torquing the malleable iron body. Installations must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and ANSI standards referenced on the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches (male)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (female)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable iron, galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: Federal Specification WW-P-471-B, ANSI B16.14, ANSI B2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: 8700130902\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346673271090,"sku":"8700130902","price":19.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547372.jpg?v=1782087225","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700130902-hex-galvanized-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
