It transitions from a 1\/4-inch FPT end to a 1\/8-inch FPT end, allowing diameter changes within a run without additional adapters. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in moisture-prone environments. Malleable iron construction delivers the high tensile strength required for reliable sealing under standard plumbing and mechanical system pressures. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for use in threaded pipe assemblies where a size reduction between 1\/4-inch and 1\/8-inch FPT connections is required. Typical applications include water supply lines, compressed air distribution, gas piping, and mechanical system branch connections. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for exposed or semi-exposed installations where bare iron fittings would be vulnerable to surface oxidation. It is sold individually and is compatible with standard NPT-threaded pipe and fittings of matching material ratings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces from 1\/4-inch FPT to 1\/8-inch FPT in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for high tensile strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish resists rust and corrosion in wet or humid environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded FPT connections on both ends for standard NPT compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.08 pounds for easy handling during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use fitting for threaded malleable iron piping systems using standard NPT pipe threads in 1\/4-inch and 1\/8-inch sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes, including IPC and IFGC requirements where relevant. Always shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack if subjected to excessive torque.\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: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Pipe Thread (FPT) both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches FPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inches FPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00690291030895\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: 8700134953\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344783933746,"sku":"8700134953","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547418.jpg?v=1782043561","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700134953-reducing-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
