This type of fitting is a standard reducing bushing used in threaded pipe assemblies across HVAC, plumbing, and light industrial applications. The hex body allows for wrench engagement, making installation straightforward and secure. Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for general-purpose piping systems. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians wherever pipe thread size reductions are required in a threaded assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is used in residential and commercial piping systems where a larger threaded port must be reduced to accept a smaller threaded connection. Common applications include gas line fittings, water supply lines, and condensate or drain piping assemblies. The 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch reduction is one of the most frequently specified sizes in trade plumbing work and HVAC mechanical rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch female NPT inlet reduces to 1\/2 inch male NPT outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex body design allows wrench tightening for a secure, leak-resistant connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction resists corrosion in general-purpose piping environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard threaded reducing bushing compatible with common NPT piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard NPT threaded hex bushing for use in residential and commercial threaded pipe systems requiring a 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or HVAC mechanical technicians working on threaded pipe assemblies. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads per local plumbing code requirements. Do not overtighten; use a pipe wrench on the hex body and follow applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines for the specific system type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (female NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (male NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 69029134778\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MARS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51620929863986,"sku":"69029134778","price":15.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7255190562516d54f9a5b2fecdfda7a7_49617b74-24f0-4132-8b18-7555e1d77cc0.jpg?v=1787347860","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mars-69029134778-hex-bushing-galvanized-1-5x0-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
