The reducing coupling connects a 1\/2-inch pipe to a 3\/8-inch pipe, making it suitable for transitions between different pipe sizes in supply lines and distribution runs. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior applications. At 0.15 pounds, this is a compact fitting suited for tight installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of threaded coupling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems where a threaded reducing connection between 1\/2-inch and 3\/8-inch lines is required. It is well suited for water supply, air, and gas service lines where malleable iron fittings are specified. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for exposed or damp locations where bare iron would corrode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces from 1\/2 inch to 3\/8 inch for pipe size transitions in threaded systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for strength and durability in mechanical piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish resists corrosion in damp or exposed environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded ends conform to standard NPT fitting conventions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.15 pounds for easy handling in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded reducing coupling for use with standard 1\/2-inch and 3\/8-inch NPT-threaded pipe in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or applicable local codes. Shut off water, gas, or compressed air supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.\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: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 x 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701360190\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: 36019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51672498274610,"sku":"36019","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-36019-galvanized-pipe-coupling-1-2-x-3-8-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
