Shut off the gas or water supply and depressurize the line before making any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before engagement. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a proper seal without over-stressing the fitting. All installations should conform to applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) as applicable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches x 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.98 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701351938\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: 35193\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346855559474,"sku":"35193","price":30.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553845.jpg?v=1782092498","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-35193-malleable-iron-pipe-bushing-3-5x3-in-black","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
