It is used to transition between two different pipe sizes within a piping system and is rated Class 125 for moderate-pressure service. The bushing is constructed from brass, making it well suited for water, air, fuel, and general fluid handling applications. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this fitting in both new construction and service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing fits into standard threaded piping assemblies where a size reduction from 1\/2 inch to 1\/4 inch is required. Typical applications include plumbing supply lines, HVAC refrigerant accessories, compressed air systems, and light industrial fluid distribution. Its compact hex-style body allows installation with a standard pipe wrench or open-end wrench in tight spaces. The Class 125 pressure rating is appropriate for low- to moderate-pressure service lines commonly found in residential and light commercial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 1\/2-inch MNPT to 1\/4-inch FNPT in a single compact fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating suitable for low- to moderate-pressure piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded end connections for tool-assisted installation without soldering or crimping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction resists corrosion in water, air, and light fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard hex body accepts pipe wrench or open-end wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for any threaded piping system using standard NPT connections in the 1\/2-inch to 1\/4-inch size range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Tighten to snug plus a half to one full turn with a wrench — do not over-tighten brass threaded fittings, as the material is softer than steel and can crack under excess torque.\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\/2 x 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT x FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial \/ Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 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: BS115-0804\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542359998770,"sku":"BS115-0804","price":78.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6b10b2752d81d7bdc30767e042030e06_1c3568ac-1ef0-4894-aaf1-ab6817b93b79.jpg?v=1785898766","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-bs115-0804-brass-pipe-bushing-1-2x1-4-mnpt-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
