Hex bushings are standard fittings in gas piping, HVAC, and plumbing systems wherever a pipe or valve requires a concentric reduction without adding a coupling and nipple. The hex body provides wrench flats for secure installation and removal. This bushing is constructed in a black iron finish typical of gas-service fittings. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians use this fitting when connecting equipment with mismatched port sizes in low-pressure gas or fluid piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving gas supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and general plumbing piping. It is commonly installed at appliance connections, manifold ports, valve inlets, and equipment tees where a 2-1\/2 inch pipe or fitting must transition down to a 1\/2 inch line. The fitting accepts standard NPT threading on both the female and male ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-1\/2 inch female NPT inlet reduces to 1\/2 inch male NPT outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body design allows full wrench engagement for leak-free assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack iron finish appropriate for gas piping service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConcentric reduction in a single fitting eliminates need for additional couplings or nipples\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard NPT threads compatible with common pipe and fittings in HVAC and plumbing systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard NPT hex bushing suitable for use with black iron gas piping systems and general plumbing piping where a 2-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch concentric reduction is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician following applicable local codes and IFGC requirements for gas piping work. Shut off gas supply or isolate the fluid line and depressurize the system before beginning work. Apply thread sealant or pipe-thread tape rated for the service type to the male threads before assembly. Test all joints for leaks after returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Bushing\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: MARS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 69029103599\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MARS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51672390074674,"sku":"69029103599","price":25.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7255190562516d54f9a5b2fecdfda7a7_e4939098-3112-4804-9429-ca0ecf422d06.jpg?v=1787966969","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mars-69029103599-hex-bushing-2-5-x-0-5-in-black-iron","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
