Mars 69029134755 Hex Bushing 2 X 1-1/4 Inches Black

Product Description

The MARS 69029134755 is a black hex bushing designed to reduce pipe thread connections from a larger fitting to a smaller line. This type of fitting seats into a female-threaded port and accepts a male-threaded pipe or fitting on the smaller end. The hex profile allows standard pipe wrenches or crescent wrenches to seat and tighten the bushing without slipping. Black finish indicates a malleable iron or black steel construction suited for gas, air, and compatible fluid piping systems. This bushing is a standard pipe fitting installed by plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors in both residential and light commercial applications.

The 69029134755 fits piping installations where a 2-inch female-threaded fitting or valve must transition down to a 1-1/4-inch male-threaded pipe or component. Common applications include gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, hydronic heating piping, and general mechanical room pipe assembly. The hex body design allows installation in tight spaces where a standard coupling or reducing nipple combination would not fit. It is a direct, single-piece reducer that simplifies transitions without additional fittings.

Key Features

• 2-inch female thread inlet reduces to 1-1/4-inch male thread outlet
• Hex body profile accepts pipe wrench or crescent wrench for secure tightening
• Black finish construction suitable for gas, air, and compatible fluid service
• Single-piece reducer eliminates the need for a bushing-plus-nipple combination
• Standard NPT thread form for broad compatibility with pipe systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT hex bushing for use in residential and light commercial piping systems requiring a 2-inch to 1-1/4-inch threaded reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or HVAC technicians in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the line before installing or removing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten; use the hex body as the wrench contact point rather than the pipe body to avoid thread damage.
