Bmi Usa 6135 Brass Hex Bushing 1-1/2 X 1-1/4 Inch

Product Description

The BMI USA 6135 is a lead-free brass hex bushing designed for threaded pipe connections where a reduction from a larger to a smaller pipe thread is required. Constructed from solid brass, this hex bushing features a hexagonal outer profile that allows secure wrench engagement during installation. At 0.46 pounds, it is a compact, durable fitting suited for potable water, plumbing distribution, and general fluid-handling applications. Its lead-free construction meets requirements for drinking water system use, making it appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing work.

This bushing is commonly installed in water supply lines, distribution manifolds, and threaded pipe assemblies where a 1-1/2 inch male thread must transition to a 1-1/4 inch female thread. It is well-suited for residential and commercial plumbing systems. Licensed plumbers and experienced tradespeople typically install this fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant tape or compound to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as excess torque can crack brass fittings or damage mating threads.
