This type of fitting is a standard threaded reducer used throughout residential and commercial piping systems, including gas distribution, compressed air lines, and black iron pipe assemblies. The hex profile allows a wrench to seat firmly during installation, providing controlled torque without slipping. Plumbers, pipefitters, and gas line technicians install this fitting during rough-in and service work where pipe size transitions are required at valves, manifolds, or appliance connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis black hex bushing is suited for use in black iron pipe systems commonly found in natural gas and propane distribution, as well as industrial and mechanical applications where malleable or black steel fittings are specified. The 3\/4-inch to 1\/2-inch reduction is one of the most common size transitions in residential gas appliance hookups and light commercial piping. Sold in a package of 25 units, this item is well suited for contractors and service shops that need stock on hand for repeat installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body profile allows secure wrench grip during tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 3\/4-inch female thread to 1\/2-inch male thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish is standard for gas and black iron pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackage quantity of 25 units supports bulk stocking and job-lot use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded fitting design for tool-installed, leak-tested connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for black iron threaded pipe systems using 3\/4-inch to 1\/2-inch NPT connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or gas fitters depending on the application and local code requirements. Before installing or replacing any threaded fitting in a gas line, shut off the gas supply at the meter or main valve and verify pressure has been relieved. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before threading the bushing into place. After installation, leak-test all gas connections using an approved bubble solution or electronic leak detector before restoring service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches male NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.84 pounds\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: B K Mueller Industries\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 521-943HN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHLAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51557967823154,"sku":"521-943HN","price":46.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fbcea2daf1e6246f88ddc13e1d9ddc65.jpg?v=1786399740","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/b-k-mueller-521-943hn-black-hex-bushing-3-4x1-2-inch-25pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
