Built from malleable iron, this fitting delivers high tensile strength suited to the mechanical and thermal stresses found in commercial and residential piping systems. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance, extending service life in wet or humid environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when transitioning from a 1-1\/2 inch line to a 1 inch line within a threaded pipe assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is appropriate for use in water supply, drainage, and general industrial piping systems where galvanized malleable iron fittings are specified. The female pipe thread on both ends accepts standard NPT-threaded pipe. It is suited for residential plumbing, light commercial mechanical rooms, and industrial applications where a step-down transition between pipe diameters is required. Install it where reducing the line size is necessary to match downstream components such as valves, pumps, or fixture supply lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction provides high tensile strength for durable threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish resists rust and corrosion in wet service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch x 1 inch FPT configuration allows inline diameter reduction without additional fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale pipe thread on both ends accepts standard NPT-threaded pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually for single-point repairs or new installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for threaded galvanized malleable iron piping systems using standard NPT connections.\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 IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before makeup to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron threads can crack under 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: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.91 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00690291031076\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: 8700135703\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346670092594,"sku":"8700135703","price":26.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547403.jpg?v=1782087173","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700135703-reducing-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
