It transitions from a 1-1\/4 inch female thread on one end to a 3\/4 inch female thread on the other, allowing for diameter reduction without additional fittings. The malleable iron construction provides high tensile strength and resistance to stress in pressurized lines. The black finish helps resist water, air, and steam, making it suitable for above-grade and in-wall mechanical installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in new construction and retrofit applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is used in residential and light commercial piping systems carrying water, air, or steam. It is well suited for gas distribution lines, compressed air runs, and hydronic heating systems where a threaded diameter change is required. The National Pipe Thread (NPT) form ensures a tight, pressure-rated seal when assembled with appropriate thread sealant or tape. It is sold individually and is a common stock fitting for service vans and mechanical rooms alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for high tensile strength in pressurized piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTransitions 1-1\/4 inch female NPT to 3\/4 inch female NPT in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish resists water, air, and steam exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNational Pipe Thread form provides a tight, reliable seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually for single-fitting replacement or new installation use\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 for standard NPT threaded piping systems using 1-1\/4 inch and 3\/4 inch pipe sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant compound or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Follow applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the fluid or gas being conveyed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: National Pipe Thread (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.64 pounds\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: 8700134458\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346051825970,"sku":"8700134458","price":18.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547406.jpg?v=1782069823","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700134458-reducing-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
