It steps down from a 3\/8 inch FPT connection on one end to a 1\/4 inch FPT connection on the other, allowing a straight-line transition between pipes of unequal diameter. Polypropylene construction provides resistance to many common chemicals and corrosive fluids, making this fitting a practical choice in systems where metal fittings may degrade. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of coupling during new construction or repair work on plastic pipe assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducer coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where plastic pipe fittings are specified. It is commonly installed in low-pressure fluid handling systems, chemical distribution lines, and water treatment setups where polypropylene is the preferred material. The dual FPT connection style allows it to thread directly onto male-threaded pipe ends or male-threaded adapters on both sides of the transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteps down from 3\/8 inch FPT to 1\/4 inch FPT in a single inline fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolypropylene construction resists corrosion and many common chemicals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale pipe thread on both ends for straightforward threaded installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight plastic body suited for low-pressure plastic piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo tools required beyond standard pipe wrenches and thread sealant application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use fitting for plastic pipe assemblies requiring a 3\/8 inch to 1\/4 inch female-to-female threaded reducer in polypropylene 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 applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Depressurize and drain the affected line before removing any existing fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant tape or compound rated for use with polypropylene fittings before threading the coupling onto male pipe ends. Hand-tighten first, then snug with a pipe wrench  -  avoid overtightening, as excessive torque can crack polypropylene threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: FPT (Female Pipe Thread)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: FPT (Female Pipe Thread)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polypropylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Category\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastic Pipe Fittings\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: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28775P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67951962390834,"sku":"28775P","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b7e21f1cf12ebb52c641e0500bf546f1.jpg?v=1791742448","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-28775p-reducer-coupling-3-8x1-4-fpt-pp","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
