It features a male NPT (MNPT) inlet and a female NPT (FNPT) outlet, making it a straightforward reducer fitting for joining pipe or fittings of different sizes. Constructed from 316\/316L stainless steel, it is rated to 3,000 psi and measures 5\/8 inch in length. This bushing is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians in applications where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is well suited for use in corrosive environments, fluid handling systems, chemical processing lines, and marine or offshore installations where 316\/316L stainless steel is specified. The 3\/4 x 1\/4-inch reduction is a common size used in instrumentation, process piping, and utility connections where a downstream line or component requires a smaller thread size than the upstream supply port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316\/316L stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to corrosion and pitting in harsh or wet environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 3,000 psi for use in high-pressure fluid systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMNPT x FNPT threaded connection for standard NPT pipe thread compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 3\/4-inch male thread to 1\/4-inch female thread in a compact 5\/8-inch length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 0.19 pounds — lightweight and easy to handle during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded pipe bushing for use in standard NPT-threaded piping systems requiring a 3\/4-inch male to 1\/4-inch female reduction in 316\/316L stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Before installation, isolate and depressurize the system completely and drain any residual fluid from the line. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MNPT threads in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Do not over-tighten, as stainless steel threads can gall — use proper technique and tooling to achieve a secure, leak-free connection.\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: 3\/4 x 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316\/316L 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\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.19 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: 3614D-1204\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540146553138,"sku":"3614D-1204","price":32.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e82a6adc18dd47c9d966aff8672fa5.jpg?v=1785847060","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-3614d-1204-pipe-bushing-3-4-x-1-4-in-316-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
