It connects a 1-1\/4 inch female threaded inlet to a 1\/4 inch male threaded outlet, allowing technicians to transition between mismatched pipe sizes without additional fittings. Constructed from solid brass, it offers reliable corrosion resistance and durability in both water supply and low-pressure mechanical applications. Weighing 0.37 pounds, this bushing is compact and straightforward to install in tight spaces. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of threaded fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a threaded reduction is needed between supply lines, valves, or equipment ports. The hexagonal body allows for standard wrench engagement, making installation and removal practical in confined areas. It is appropriate for use in water supply, hydronic, and general mechanical piping systems where lead-free fittings are required by code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets potable water safety requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch female to 1\/4 inch male threaded reduction in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body design allows wrench engagement for controlled tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid brass material provides corrosion resistance in water and mechanical service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor suits installations with limited clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation threaded brass bushing for residential and commercial plumbing systems requiring a 1-1\/4 inch to 1\/4 inch NPT 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 thread sealant tape or pipe compound to the male threads before assembly. Tighten using a wrench on the hex body; do not over-tighten, as brass threads can be damaged by excessive torque.\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 Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inch female\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch male\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: 0.37 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701061707\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: 6170\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51343327265074,"sku":"6170","price":27.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553803.jpg?v=1782020167","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-6170-brass-hex-bushing-1-1-4-x-1-4-inch-lead-free","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
