Bmi Usa 6133 Lead Free Brass Hex Bushing 1-1/4 X 1/2 in

Product Description

The BMI USA 6133 is a lead free brass hex bushing designed to reduce a larger threaded pipe connection to a smaller one. This fitting transitions a 1-1/4 inch female thread to a 1/2 inch male thread, making it a standard reducing bushing for threaded pipe assemblies. The hex body allows a wrench to seat the fitting securely without slipping. At 0.39 pounds, it is a compact, solid brass component suited for plumbing systems where lead free compliance is required. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this fitting during pipe assembly, system modifications, or repair work on water supply and distribution lines.

This hex bushing is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing applications. It is commonly installed in water supply lines, boiler piping, and hydronic heating systems where a threaded reducing connection is needed between pipes of different nominal diameters. The lead free brass construction makes it suitable for potable water systems where applicable codes mandate lead free materials.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly.
