Built from forged steel for added strength and pressure resistance, this bushing provides a reliable transition between pipe sizes in pressurized systems. The hex body allows for standard wrench engagement during installation. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors routinely use hex bushings like this one to adapt threaded pipe runs without adding unnecessary fittings or increasing joint count.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, steam, and general industrial piping applications where a 2-inch to 1-inch threaded reduction is required. It is compatible with standard NPT threaded pipe and fittings. The forged steel construction makes it appropriate for moderate-pressure systems where cast iron or malleable alternatives may be specified. Always verify material compatibility with the fluid or gas being conveyed before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eForged steel construction for high strength and durability under pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch female NPT inlet to 1-inch male NPT outlet reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body profile allows secure wrench engagement during makeup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded connection compatible with standard NPT pipe and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for plumbing, hydronic, and general industrial piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT threaded piping systems requiring a 2-inch to 1-inch reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of threaded pipe bushings should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASME B1.20.1 NPT thread standards. Always depressurize and drain the system before removing or installing fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before makeup. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches (female NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch (male NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Forged Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.92 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 082647099784\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: MATCO-NORCA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: mn-ftbu0805\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MATCO-NORCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51672676401458,"sku":"MN-FTBU0805","price":21.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/matco-norca-mn-ftbu0805-forged-steel-hex-bushing-2x1","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
