Mars 69029103836 Hex Bushing 2 X 1/4 in Galvanized

Product Description

The MARS 69029103836 is a galvanized hex bushing designed to reduce pipe thread connections from a 2-inch female fitting down to a 1/4-inch male thread. Hex bushings are standard reducing fittings used to adapt different pipe sizes within a threaded piping system. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited to moderate-exposure environments. This type of fitting is installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters working on threaded pipe assemblies across a wide range of mechanical systems.

This hex bushing is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and general mechanical installations where a threaded pipe size reduction is needed. The 2-inch to 1/4-inch reduction makes it suitable for connecting smaller instrumentation, gauges, drain taps, or other small-diameter threaded components into a larger pipe run. It is typically found in water, gas, or air piping systems where galvanized fittings are an acceptable material choice.

Key Features

• Reduces 2-inch female pipe thread to 1/4-inch male pipe thread
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure applications
• Hex body design allows wrench engagement for secure installation and removal
• Threaded fitting compatible with standard NPT pipe systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use hex bushing for threaded pipe systems requiring a 2-inch to 1/4-inch reduction in galvanized construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before making or breaking any threaded connection. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Follow applicable local codes including IPC or IFGC requirements for fitting material compatibility with the conveyed medium.
