Sized at 3\/4 inch on the larger end and 1\/8 inch on the smaller end, it steps down pipe size without additional adapters. Rated at 150 PSI and conforming to ASTM A197\/A197M, this fitting is built for low-pressure gas, water, and air distribution systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this class of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducer coupling is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a threaded pipe run must transition between a 3\/4 inch and 1\/8 inch line. Common scenarios include branch takeoffs on gas distribution manifolds, compressed air systems, and water supply piping. The female-threaded connections on both ends accept standard male-threaded pipe on each side of the transition. Its black finish is standard for gas-service malleable iron fittings in residential and commercial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch x 1\/8 inch reducing configuration in a single fitting body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFemale threaded x female threaded end connections for inline installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150 PSI pressure rating suitable for low-pressure gas, air, and water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature rated to 350 degrees F for broad system compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction per ASTM A197\/A197M for durability and machinability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free construction meeting applicable plumbing and health code standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed to UL, FM, and ANSI\/ASME B16.3; manufactured under ISO 9001 quality system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fitting for threaded malleable iron piping systems conforming to ANSI\/ASME B16.3 Class 150 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local mechanical and plumbing codes, including applicable IFGC or IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system fully before removing any existing fitting or threading in this coupling. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads being engaged, following the sealant manufacturer and code requirements for the service type. Do not over-tighten; use a pipe wrench with a backup wrench on the adjoining pipe to avoid stressing the fitting or the connected piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducer Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize A\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize B\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Threaded x Female Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A197\/A197M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 350 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL, FM, ANSI\/ASME B16.3, ISO 9001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead-Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: zmbcpr0400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MATCO-NORCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138596536626,"sku":"ZMBCPR0400","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305526706.jpg?v=1778259753","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/matco-norca-zmbcpr0400-reducer-coupling-3-4x1-8-150psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
