It transitions from a 1\/2-inch Female NPT port to a 1\/8-inch Female NPT port using a 1\/2-14 x 1\/8-27 thread configuration. Constructed from lead-free bronze, this fitting meets federal and state lead-free requirements for potable water systems. Rated at a 125 lb pressure class, it delivers reliable performance in residential and light commercial plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for potable water lines, gas distribution systems, and instrumentation connections where a size reduction between threaded female ports is required. Its lead-free bronze construction makes it appropriate for use in drinking water systems subject to lead-content regulations. The compact design allows for installation in tight spaces where reducing bushings or multiple adapters would otherwise be needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free bronze construction meets potable water lead-content requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch Female NPT x 1\/8-inch Female NPT reducing configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-14 x 1\/8-27 thread specification for precise fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e125 lb pressure class rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to AWWA C800, ASME B16.15, ASME B1.20.1, WW-P-460C, and MSS-SP-106 dimensional standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUSA lead-free bronze fitting per supplier classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded reducing coupling for 1\/2-inch Female NPT to 1\/8-inch Female NPT connections in potable water, plumbing, and instrumentation piping systems where lead-free bronze fittings are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads being engaged into this fitting.
