Built to multiple dimensional and performance standards, this fitting is suited for potable water, plumbing supply, and general service applications where lead-free materials are required by code. The 2-11-1\/2 x 1-11-1\/2 thread profile ensures consistent engagement with standard NPT-threaded pipe. At 2.03 inches in length and weighing approximately 1.025 pounds, the fitting is compact and easy to handle in tight service spaces. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of coupling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a pipe size reduction is needed in-line without the use of additional adapters. Common install scenarios include supply line transitions, manifold connections, and service valve configurations where NPT-threaded fittings are standard. The lead-free bronze construction meets regulatory requirements for use in potable water systems under modern plumbing codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free bronze construction meets potable water safe material requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-in Female NPT x 1-in Female NPT connections for in-line size reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-11-1\/2 x 1-11-1\/2 thread profile conforms to ASME B1.20.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets AWWA C800, ASME B16.15, WW-P-460C, and MSS-SP-106 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact at 2.03 inches in length for use in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT-threaded piping systems requiring a 2-inch to 1-inch female-to-female reducing connection in lead-free bronze construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads being joined to this fitting. Do not over-tighten; use a pipe wrench with controlled force to seat threads without cracking the fitting body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-11-1\/2 x 1-11-1\/2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.03 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.85 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.025 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: AWWA C800, ASME B16.15, ASME B1.20.1, WW-P-460C, MSS-SP-106\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 44452LFUSA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67952091627826,"sku":"44452LFUSA","price":340.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/38f5e4a476f8326aaa0762cd7f1520cf_4adb17e7-ca50-4c21-a275-4cb0fce941d7.jpg?v=1791746433","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-44452lfusa-reducing-coupling-2-in-x-1-in-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
