It is used to adapt between two different pipe thread sizes in low-pressure fluid and gas systems. The threaded MNPT x FNPT end configuration allows for direct installation into tapped fittings, valves, manifolds, and pipe assemblies without additional adapters. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications where a pipe thread size reduction is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, compressed air distribution, and general fluid handling systems where a 1\/2 inch to 3\/8 inch NPT reduction is needed. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance and reliable sealing when used with appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on the male threads. Class 125 pressure rating makes it appropriate for standard service-pressure pipework encountered in typical trade installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 1\/2 inch MNPT to 3\/8 inch FNPT in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating for standard service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded end connections for tool-installable, no-solder assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction offers corrosion resistance in water and air service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact bushing profile fits directly into fittings, valves, and manifold ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or installation fitting for any system requiring a threaded 1\/2 inch MNPT to 3\/8 inch FNPT pipe size reduction in Class 125 service.\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 IFGC code requirements for the specific service fluid. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as the material is softer than iron and can be damaged by excessive 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 3\/8 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\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 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: C114-0806\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538743263538,"sku":"C114-0806","price":23.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f3742b643f8ab69deba2f4de0376c2a3.jpg?v=1785825966","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-c114-0806-brass-pipe-bushing-1-2x3-8-mnpt-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
