B K/mueller Inds(import) 511-984HC Galvanized Hex Bushing

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 511-984HC is a galvanized hex bushing designed to reduce a 2-inch female pipe thread to a 3/4-inch male pipe thread. Hex bushings are standard fittings used to transition between two different pipe sizes within a threaded piping system. The galvanized steel finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial systems.

This galvanized hex bushing is used in applications where a threaded pipe or fitting of one size must connect to a threaded port of a smaller size. Common scenarios include connecting branch lines to larger mains, adapting valves and equipment with differing port sizes, and general pipe-size transitions in water supply or gas piping systems. The 2-inch to 3/4-inch reduction makes it suitable for moderate flow-reduction transitions in both new construction and retrofit work.
