Bmi Usa 6132 Brass Hex Bushing 1-1/4 X 3/4 Inch Lead Free

Product Description

The BMI USA 6132 is a lead-free brass hex bushing designed to reduce from a 1-1/4 inch female threaded connection to a 3/4 inch male threaded connection. This type of fitting is a standard component in plumbing systems where pipe size transitions are required within threaded assemblies. Machined from brass, the hex body allows for secure wrench engagement during installation. The lead-free construction meets current potable water standards, making it appropriate for use in domestic water supply lines. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of threaded pipe assemblies in both residential and light commercial applications.

The BMI USA 6132 hex bushing is used in threaded pipe systems where a reduction between NPT sizes is needed. Typical applications include water supply lines, distribution manifolds, and equipment connections where a 1-1/4 inch port must be reduced to accept a 3/4 inch threaded component. Its compact hex profile fits into tight spaces and is well suited for service work and retrofit installations where space around the fitting is limited.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT threaded hex bushing for use in residential and light commercial plumbing systems requiring a 1-1/4 inch to 3/4 inch pipe size reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters working on threaded pipe systems. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before making any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Tighten to a firm, wrench-tight connection using an appropriately sized wrench on the hex body — do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
