The bushing uses a male NPT outer thread and female NPT inner thread, making it a direct, wrench-installed fitting with no need for additional adapters. Rated at 3,000 psi, it is suitable for demanding fluid and gas transfer applications where carbon steel fittings would be prone to corrosion. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is appropriate for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial piping systems where stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance, sanitary requirements, or chemical compatibility. Common install scenarios include process piping, potable water systems, compressed air lines, and hydraulic or instrumentation lines requiring a reduction from 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch NPT. The dual-grade 304\/304L designation makes it compatible with both standard and weld-adjacent service without sensitization concerns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304\/304L stainless steel construction for broad corrosion resistance and dual-grade service flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3,000 psi pressure rating suitable for demanding fluid and gas transfer lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMNPT x FNPT threaded connection for tool-only installation with no welding required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch reduction in a single fitting, eliminating additional adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, compatible with standard NPT pipe thread systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded pipe bushing for any piping system using standard NPT fittings where a 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch reduction is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing and piping codes such as the IPC or ASME B31 standards. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads per the sealant manufacturer's instructions and the requirements of the fluid being conveyed. Do not over-torque stainless steel fittings, as galling of the threads can occur; use a calibrated pipe wrench and a backup wrench on adjacent fittings where applicable.\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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304\/304L Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 x 1\/2 inches\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: 0.75 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-2408\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543983489330,"sku":"3414D-2408","price":72.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3fc417ac94c75aa35414b8280d52bfb2.jpg?v=1785922622","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-3414d-2408-pipe-bushing-1-1-2x1-2-ss-3000psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
