It features male BSP tapered (MBSPT) inlet threads on the outer diameter and female BSP tapered (FBSPT) threads on the inner bore, allowing inline pipe size reduction in pressurized systems. Rated Class 125, this bushing is suited for low-to-medium pressure plumbing, HVAC hydronic piping, and general industrial piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as a standard reducing connection in new construction and retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic systems where a threaded pipe size reduction from 1 inch down to 3\/4 inch is needed. It is commonly installed in water supply lines, boiler piping, and gas-rated threaded assemblies where Class 125 brass fittings meet code requirements. The all-brass construction resists corrosion in water and moderate chemical service environments, making it a reliable choice in wet mechanical rooms and utility spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 1-inch pipe connection to 3\/4-inch in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMBSPT x FBSPT threaded ends for standard tapered pipe thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating for low-to-medium pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in water and hydronic applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact hex-body bushing profile installs with standard pipe wrenches\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 threaded pipe systems requiring a 1 x 3\/4-inch reducing bushing with Class 125 brass construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with the applicable International Plumbing Code (IPC) or local authority having jurisdiction. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten with a pipe wrench to full thread engagement. Do not over-torque brass fittings, as this can crack the hex body or distort the seat.\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 x 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: MBSPT x FBSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\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: 0.24 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: XB114-1612\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542831431986,"sku":"XB114-1612","price":41.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bbfe0324d354e4b4f30bbacfb520e7f3.jpg?v=1785908725","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-xb114-1612-brass-pipe-bushing-1x3-4-in-class-125","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
