This fitting is manufactured with a galvanized steel finish that provides corrosion resistance in standard plumbing, mechanical, and industrial piping applications. The hex body allows for secure wrench engagement during installation, making it a reliable component for reducing threaded pipe or fitting connections. Plumbers and pipefitters install this bushing when transitioning between two common pipe sizes in water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a 2-inch to 1-1\/2-inch threaded reduction is needed. It is a practical choice for water distribution lines, drain and vent systems that use threaded galvanized pipe, and similar mechanical piping installations. The fitting ships in a package quantity of five units, making it convenient for jobs requiring multiple reductions or for shop stock. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or experienced pipe trades professionals following applicable code requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 2-inch female threads to 1-1\/2-inch male threads in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for standard piping environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body profile provides full wrench engagement for secure makeup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of five for multi-connection or stock applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded ends allow installation without soldering, pressing, or specialized tooling\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 2-inch to 1-1\/2-inch NPT threaded galvanized pipe systems in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipe trades professional in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly.
