Bmi Usa 20028 Pipe Coupling 1x1/2 Inch 300 Xh Black

Product Description

The BMI USA 20028 is a 1 x 1/2 inch extra heavy (XH) black malleable iron pipe coupling rated at 300, designed for joining and reducing threaded pipe sections in demanding plumbing and mechanical piping systems. Constructed from extra heavy malleable iron with a black finish, this coupling delivers the wall thickness and durability required in high-pressure or industrial-grade installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where standard-weight fittings are not rated for the application. At 0.67 pounds, the 20028 is a compact, no-frills fitting built to perform in commercial and industrial environments.

This coupling is suited for use in threaded iron pipe systems in commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic piping, steam distribution, and industrial mechanical installations. The 1 x 1/2 inch reducing configuration allows transition between two pipe sizes without additional adapters. Extra heavy fittings are commonly specified in steam and high-pressure gas piping where standard malleable iron fittings do not meet system pressure or safety requirements.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for high-pressure and demanding piping applications
• 1 x 1/2 inch reducing coupling for size transition in threaded pipe systems
• Black finish extra heavy malleable iron for corrosion resistance in non-exposed applications
• 300-class pressure rating suitable for steam, gas, and high-pressure water systems
• Threaded ends for standard NPT pipe connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for threaded iron pipe systems requiring a 1 x 1/2 inch extra heavy reducing coupling.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
