The external thread (MNPT) mates into a larger female-threaded fitting, while the internal thread (FNPT) accepts a smaller male-threaded pipe or fitting. Rated to 3,000 psi, this bushing suits high-pressure piping applications where corrosion resistance is a priority. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting when transitioning between pipe sizes within a threaded system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for use in industrial, commercial, and residential plumbing and piping systems where stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance, sanitary requirements, or chemical compatibility. The 304\/304L dual-grade material meets both standard and low-carbon stainless requirements, making it appropriate for welded assemblies or systems subject to intermittent high-temperature exposure. It is a direct drop-in reducer bushing wherever a 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/4 inch NPT reduction is needed in a threaded line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304\/304L stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and dual-grade material compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3,000 psi pressure rating suitable for high-pressure piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMNPT x FNPT threaded ends for tool-based installation without welding or crimping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch to 1\/4 inch size reduction in a single compact fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex-body bushing design allows standard pipe wrench or hex wrench installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded reducer bushing for use in 1-1\/2 inch female NPT ports requiring a 1\/4 inch male NPT outlet across threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, hydraulic, and process piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC and ASME B1.20.1 thread standards. Depressurize and drain the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before makeup; do not overtighten, as stainless threads are susceptible to galling. Inspect thread engagement for at least three to five full turns before applying system pressure.\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: 1-1\/2 x 1\/4 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: 0.895 pounds\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-2404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543483613490,"sku":"3414D-2404","price":72.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bfec42103af251d7c60078d411092115.jpg?v=1785919340","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-3414d-2404-pipe-bushing-1-1-2-x-1-4-in-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
