It is rated Class 125, making it suitable for low- to medium-pressure plumbing, gas distribution, and fluid-handling systems. The bushing threads directly into a female fitting or valve body on the larger end and accepts a male-threaded pipe or fitting on the smaller end. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of reducer bushing when transitioning between pipe sizes within a threaded assembly. The all-brass construction resists corrosion and withstands the demands of water, air, and compatible fluid service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and general industrial piping where a threaded pipe size reduction is required. It is well suited for installation in supply lines, manifold assemblies, and valve stations where a 3\/4 inch to 1\/2 inch transition is needed without adding additional fittings to the run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch MNPT inlet reduces to 1\/2 inch FNPT outlet in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating suitable for water, air, and compatible fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-brass construction for corrosion resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact hex-body bushing design installs directly into female-threaded fittings or valve ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard NPT threads ensure compatibility with common threaded pipe fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT threaded plumbing and piping systems requiring a 3\/4 inch to 1\/2 inch threaded reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters working with threaded pipe systems. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe compound to the male threads per applicable plumbing code requirements such as the IPC or IFGC before making up the joint. Do not over-torque brass fittings, as brass threads are softer than steel and can be damaged by excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\/2 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\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\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: C114-1208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542393880882,"sku":"C114-1208","price":28.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1458274098b8fff26183110f5272dc49.jpg?v=1785899559","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-c114-1208-brass-pipe-bushing-3-4x1-2-mnpt-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
