This type of hex bushing provides a wrench-flat hex head for secure installation and removal using standard pipe wrenches or open-end wrenches. Manufactured from steel, it meets ANSI 372-2016 standards. It is a common fitting for connecting pipes or components of different thread sizes in gas, air, and fluid distribution systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting in commercial and industrial applications where threaded black iron pipe assemblies are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is suited for use in black iron threaded piping systems found in commercial gas distribution, compressed air lines, and general industrial fluid piping. The hex shoulder design allows it to be installed directly into a female-threaded fitting or pipe end, bridging size transitions without the need for a coupling or nipple combination. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit work where pipe diameter reductions are needed at a single fitting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces 4-inch female thread to 1-inch male thread in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex shoulder design allows wrench engagement for controlled tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction meets ANSI 372-2016 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 4.70 inches with an overall length of 4.70 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack iron finish suitable for gas and general-purpose piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 4-inch x 1-inch NPT threaded black iron piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before disassembling or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.70 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Pipe Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.70 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI 372-2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: JONES STEPHENS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: b1440875\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"JONES STEPHENS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51267863183666,"sku":"B1440875","price":324.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308912326.jpg?v=1780692594","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/jones-stephens-b1440875-black-iron-hex-bushing-4x1","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
