This hex bushing allows plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians to transition between two standard NPT pipe sizes within a single fitting. Built to Class 125 pressure rating, it is suited for low- to moderate-pressure applications in gas, air, water, and steam distribution systems. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance and reliable thread engagement in both residential and light commercial piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is used in situations where a pipe or valve with a 1\/4-inch FNPT port must be connected to a 1\/2-inch MNPT supply line or manifold. Typical applications include instrumentation taps, gauge ports, valve inlets, and branch connections on plumbing, HVAC, and compressed air systems. It is sold individually and commonly stocked by contractors who work across residential service calls and light commercial installations.\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 threaded fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating suitable for low- to moderate-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction resists corrosion in plumbing and HVAC environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded ends for tool-based installation without soldering or crimping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact hex body for wrench access in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded reduction fitting compatible with standard 1\/2-inch MNPT and 1\/4-inch FNPT pipe connections in Class 125 plumbing, HVAC, and compressed air systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians. Shut off the supply line and relieve system pressure before threading the bushing into place. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads per local code requirements, referencing the IPC or IFGC as applicable to the service medium. Do not overtighten; use a wrench on the hex body only and avoid applying torque to downstream components.\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\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\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: 0.1 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: X114-0804\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722890445106,"sku":"X114-0804","price":79.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7ea715c73fdbca4493b238a42df70c07.jpg?v=1788597454","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-x114-0804-brass-pipe-bushing-1-2x1-4-mnpt-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
