Bmi Usa 6028 Brass Threaded Coupling 1x1/2 Lead Free

Product Description

The BMI USA 6028 is a lead-free brass threaded coupling designed for joining pipes of two different diameters in plumbing and fluid-handling systems. This reducing coupling connects a 1-inch line to a 1/2-inch line using threaded ends, making it a standard solution for residential and light commercial piping work. Weighing 0.38 pounds, the fitting is machined from brass, which provides corrosion resistance and durability in potable water and general plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting as part of routine pipe assembly and modification work.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a threaded pipe transition from 1 inch to 1/2 inch is required. Typical applications include water supply lines, distribution manifolds, and general-purpose pipe modifications where lead-free compliance is required by code. The lead-free construction meets regulatory requirements for use in potable water systems.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets potable water compliance requirements
• Reducing coupling transitions from 1 inch to 1/2 inch threaded pipe
• Brass material provides corrosion resistance for long service life
• Threaded ends allow tool-based installation without soldering
• Compact and lightweight at 0.38 pounds

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded reducing coupling for use with 1-inch by 1/2-inch threaded pipe connections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber following applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe compound to the male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to a snug, leak-free fit. Do not overtighten, as this can crack or distort brass fittings.
