The fitting transitions between a 1-1\/2-inch and a 1\/2-inch threaded connection, making it well suited for reducing applications where a change in line size is required. Constructed from solid brass, it offers reliable corrosion resistance and durability under standard service pressures. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipe fitters install this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is used in potable water supply, hydronic heating, and general plumbing distribution systems where a threaded reducing connection is needed. Its lead-free construction makes it appropriate for use in drinking water applications subject to lead-free compliance requirements. The 1-1\/2-inch by 1\/2-inch size covers a common transition point found in branch lines, fixture supply runs, and equipment connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets compliance requirements for potable water installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2-inch x 1\/2-inch threaded configuration for reducing pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid brass material provides corrosion resistance in wet service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded ends allow tool-based installation without soldering or special equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.7 pounds for easy handling and overhead installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for threaded plumbing systems using 1-1\/2-inch and 1\/2-inch NPT pipe connections in residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before working on any threaded connection. Apply thread sealant tape or approved pipe compound to the male threads before assembly, and tighten with appropriate wrenches — do not over-torque brass fittings. Inspect for leaks after restoring pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 pounds\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: 6038\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346279498034,"sku":"6038","price":53.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553962.jpg?v=1782076149","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-6038-brass-threaded-coupling-1-1-2-x-1-2-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
