It features a male NPT on the larger end and a female NPT on the smaller end, allowing a 1-1\/2 inch connection to step down to a 3\/4 inch connection. Constructed from solid brass, this bushing resists corrosion and holds up in both hot and cold water service lines. Its hexagonal body provides a flat-to-flat grip surface for wrench installation. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial applications where thread size transitions are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for use in potable water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and general-purpose threaded piping systems. The lead-free construction meets requirements for contact with drinking water, making it appropriate for domestic water service installations. It is used wherever a 1-1\/2 inch to 3\/4 inch NPT reduction is needed within a threaded pipe assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets potable water contact requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces from 1-1\/2 inch male NPT to 3\/4 inch female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHexagonal body allows secure wrench engagement during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass material provides corrosion resistance in water service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact, lightweight design at 0.54 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fitting for standard NPT threaded pipe systems requiring a 1-1\/2 inch to 3\/4 inch size reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant tape or compound to the male NPT threads before assembly and tighten with a pipe wrench to the hex flats. Do not over-tighten, as excessive force can crack brass fittings or distort threads.\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\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (male NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch (female NPT)\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: 0.54 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701061370\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: 6137\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51343148384562,"sku":"6137","price":33.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553866.jpg?v=1782018151","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-6137-brass-hex-bushing-1-1-2-x-3-4-in-lead-free","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
