This fitting reduces a 3-inch male threaded connection down to a 1-1\/2-inch female threaded port, making it a standard solution for transitioning between pipe sizes in water distribution, drainage, and related piping assemblies. Constructed from solid brass, the hex body allows for secure wrench engagement during installation. At 1.84 pounds, the fitting is built for durability in demanding trade applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of threaded reduction fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where threaded pipe size reductions are required. Common applications include water supply lines, distribution manifolds, and mechanical room piping where a 3-inch to 1-1\/2-inch reduction is needed. The lead-free construction meets applicable safe drinking water requirements, making it appropriate for potable water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction suitable for potable water applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch male NPT to 1-1\/2-inch female NPT hex bushing configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body design allows standard wrench engagement for controlled installation torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid brass material provides corrosion resistance in water service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.84-pound weight indicates substantial wall thickness and material integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded brass reduction fitting for use in residential and commercial plumbing systems requiring a 3-inch to 1-1\/2-inch NPT hex bushing connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC standards.
