This fitting connects a 2-inch female thread to a 3\/4-inch male thread, allowing tradespeople to transition between pipe sizes without additional adapters. The black finish indicates a malleable iron or steel construction suited for gas, air, and water distribution lines. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during new construction and retrofit work where downsizing a threaded connection is required. Each package contains 5 pieces, making it practical for multi-point installations or job-site stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is used in residential and light commercial plumbing and gas piping applications. The hex head profile allows for standard wrench engagement during installation, ensuring a secure, leak-free threaded joint. Typical applications include gas distribution manifolds, compressed air systems, and black iron water supply piping where a 2-inch to 3\/4-inch reduction is needed at a threaded fitting, valve, or appliance connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 2-inch female thread to 3\/4-inch male thread in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex head profile provides full wrench engagement for proper torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for gas, air, and water piping service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 5-piece package for multi-point or backup inventory use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact bushing design eliminates the need for a separate coupling and nipple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for threaded black iron piping systems requiring a 2-inch to 3\/4-inch pipe thread reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed plumber or pipefitter should install this fitting in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) as appropriate to the service. Shut off and depressurize the line before disassembling any existing threaded connection. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-extend engagement beyond full thread makeup, as this can crack fittings or distort seating surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches (female)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (male)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\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: 521-984HC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHLAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51560716960050,"sku":"521-984HC","price":23.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/84384c8c5c148ca6baffd375d8e98dab.jpg?v=1786456088","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/b-k-mueller-521-984hc-black-hex-bushing-2x3-4-in-5-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
