Rated in the 300 XH (extra heavy) class, this 2x1 coupling provides a durable, reliable connection between pipe sections where standard-weight fittings are not adequate. Malleable iron construction delivers the toughness required in commercial and industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting on threaded pipe runs in systems where pressure ratings and mechanical strength are critical priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for use in commercial and industrial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, gas distribution piping, and steam or compressed air lines where extra heavy fittings are specified. The 2x1 sizing accommodates a reduction between pipe diameters, making it a common fitting in retrofit and new-construction runs where pipe sizing transitions are required. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial applications where extra heavy class fittings are called out by design or code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy (XH) 300-class rating for high-pressure and high-demand piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy malleable iron construction for superior mechanical strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish for standard identification of non-galvanized malleable iron fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2x1 reducing configuration accommodates pipe diameter transitions in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded connection design for straightforward installation with standard pipe threading equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install extra heavy malleable iron reducing coupling for threaded pipe systems requiring 300 XH class fittings at a 2x1 pipe size transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC or IPC standards as appropriate to the system type. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Use pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service type on all threaded joints. Do not over-tighten threaded malleable iron fittings, as this can crack the fitting body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 XH (Extra Heavy)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.27 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701200427\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: BMI USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20042\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347776078130,"sku":"20042","price":56.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310554043.jpg?v=1782113543","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-20042-pipe-coupling-2x1-300-xh-black","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
