Jmf Company LF6014412089800 Hex Bushing 3/4 X 1/2 in

Product Description

The JMF COMPANY LF6014412089800 is a hex bushing designed to reduce a 3/4-inch female pipe thread to a 1/2-inch male pipe thread. Hex bushings serve as threaded reducers in piping systems, allowing technicians to connect pipes or fittings of different sizes without the need for a full coupling or union. This style of bushing is a standard component in plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping assemblies. The hexagonal body provides a wrench flat for secure installation and proper torque application. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians regularly use hex bushings during system construction, repair, and retrofit work.

This hex bushing is suited for use in residential and light commercial piping installations where a threaded size reduction from 3/4 inch to 1/2 inch is required. Common applications include water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and HVAC refrigerant or condensate system connections where threaded fittings are specified. It is appropriate for use wherever NPT threaded pipe connections are used and a reduction in line size is needed.

Key Features

• Reduces 3/4-inch female NPT to 1/2-inch male NPT threaded connection
• Hex body design provides flat surfaces for wrench engagement during installation
• Compact bushing form eliminates the need for a separate coupling or union when reducing pipe size
• Suitable for use in threaded plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded hex bushing for use with 3/4-inch female NPT and 1/2-inch male NPT piping connections in residential and light commercial systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off the water supply or gas service and depressurize the line before working on any threaded connection. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Use a pipe wrench or adjustable wrench on the hex body to tighten the bushing to the fitting; do not over-tighten, as this can damage threaded connections.
