Hex bushings are a standard fitting used in plumbing, HVAC piping, and gas distribution systems wherever pipe size must be reduced inline without adding length. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in water supply, compressed air, and similar service applications. This package contains 25 pieces, making it practical for contractors and service techs who need to stock common fittings. Installation requires standard pipe wrenches and compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGalvanized hex bushings in this size range are commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing, natural gas distribution piping, and compressed air lines. The 1 inch to 1\/4 inch reduction fits a wide variety of applications including gauge tapping points, instrument connections, and branch supply lines. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians routinely use fittings of this type when modifying or extending existing piping systems. The hex body allows secure engagement with a pipe wrench or adjustable wrench for proper installation torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish for corrosion resistance in water, air, and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 inch female pipe thread to 1\/4 inch male pipe thread reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body design accepts standard pipe wrench for secure installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 25 pieces for contractor and shop stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard NPT thread form for compatibility with common pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard NPT-threaded galvanized hex bushing suitable for use in residential and commercial plumbing, gas, and compressed air piping systems where a 1 inch to 1\/4 inch inline reduction is required.\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.
