Constructed from malleable iron, this fitting delivers high tensile strength suited to demanding piping systems. The galvanized finish provides a protective zinc coating that resists rust and corrosion in wet or exposed environments. This fitting is sold individually and is intended for installation by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or commercial piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is used in threaded pipe assemblies where a transition from a larger 1-inch line to a smaller 1\/2-inch branch is required. It is a common component in water supply, hydronic heating, and general-purpose piping systems. The FPT configuration on both ends allows it to thread directly onto male-threaded pipe or fittings without additional adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction provides high tensile strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish resists rust and corrosion in wet or exposed conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces from 1-inch to 1\/2-inch FPT for branch line transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFemale pipe thread on both ends for straightforward threaded assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually (each unit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for standard threaded malleable iron pipe systems using 1-inch and 1\/2-inch NPT-compatible connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the water or fluid supply before beginning any work on the piping system. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly, and tighten fittings with a pipe wrench to a snug, leak-free connection without overtightening malleable iron threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch FPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch FPT\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\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.41 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00690291031007\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: 8700135455\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347311526194,"sku":"8700135455","price":18.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547428.jpg?v=1782101151","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700135455-reducing-galvanized-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
