B K/mueller Inds(import) 511-941HN Galvanized Hex Bushing

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 511-941HN is a galvanized hex bushing used to reduce a 3/4-inch female pipe thread to a 1/4-inch male pipe thread. This fitting is constructed with a galvanized finish to resist corrosion in wet or exposed environments. Hex bushings are a standard threaded reduction fitting found throughout plumbing, HVAC, gas distribution, and industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when reducing pipe sizes inline without the need for a coupling or nipple combination. The package contains 5 pieces, making it practical for service trucks and multi-point installations.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and piping applications where a threaded reduction is required between 3/4-inch and 1/4-inch pipe. Common install scenarios include branch takeoffs, gauge ports, drain taps, and instrument connections on water, air, or compatible gas lines. The galvanized coating makes it appropriate for systems where moisture exposure is a concern.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC codes. Shut off supply pressure and depressurize the line before disassembly or installation. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before engagement. Do not over-torque the fitting, as the hex body is sized for standard pipe wrench or adjustable wrench use only.
