Constructed from 304\/304L stainless steel, it delivers solid corrosion resistance for installations exposed to moisture, mild chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The bushing carries a 3,000 psi pressure rating, making it suitable for demanding hydraulic, pneumatic, and process-piping applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this fitting when transitioning between pipe sizes within a threaded assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing fits residential, commercial, and light industrial piping systems where a hex bushing-style reducer is required at an existing 1\/4-inch male NPT port. Common applications include compressed-air distribution, instrumentation lines, refrigeration oil lines, water distribution manifolds, and process-control piping. The MNPT x FNPT end configuration allows direct hand-start thread engagement before final torque, simplifying installation in tight spaces. It ships individually and is available in minimum order quantities of 6 units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304\/304L stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and mildly corrosive environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3,000 psi pressure rating suits high-pressure pneumatic and hydraulic service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMNPT x FNPT threaded connection for tool-compatible, leak-resistant assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch male to 1\/8-inch female reducing configuration in a compact hex bushing form\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded end connections comply with standard NPT taper for broad fitment in existing pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded pipe bushing replacement for use in any standard NPT-threaded piping system requiring a 1\/4-inch male to 1\/8-inch female reducing connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Avoid over-torquing stainless steel threads, as galling can occur without proper lubrication or anti-seize compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 x 1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304\/304L Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT x FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3,000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\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: MERIT BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3414D-0402\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543590797618,"sku":"3414D-0402","price":65.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fb595764ea2e1bf5be04d90ee453e3c6.jpg?v=1785920756","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-3414d-0402-pipe-bushing-1-4-x-1-8-in-ss-3000-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
