It features MBSPT x FBSPT end connections and is rated Class 125, making it suitable for moderate-pressure water, air, and general fluid service applications. Weighing 0.649 pounds, this threaded bushing provides a compact, reliable transition between two different pipe sizes without the need for additional fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of bushing during new construction and retrofit work where pipe size reductions are required in threaded systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and general industrial piping where Class 125 brass fittings are specified. The threaded design allows installation with standard pipe wrenches and thread sealant, and no special tooling is required. It is commonly used in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and equipment connections where a reduction from 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch pipe is needed in a threaded configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces 1-1\/2 inch female thread to 1\/2 inch female thread in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMBSPT x FBSPT end connections for standard tapered pipe thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating suitable for water, air, and general fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction offers corrosion resistance and long service life in wet environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded design installs with common hand tools and standard pipe thread sealant\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 brass pipe systems requiring a 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch reduction with Class 125 pressure-rated components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded fittings.
