Constructed from steel and rated to 375 degrees F, this bushing is suited for hydraulic lines and industrial pipe systems where a reliable threaded reduction is required. The hex body allows for standard wrench engagement, making installation straightforward in tight spaces. This fitting belongs to the 5406 Series and is a direct-fit component for steel pipe adapter applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducer bushing is used in hydraulic systems and steel pipe assemblies where line size must be stepped down from 1 inch to 1\/2 inch. Typical installation scenarios include hydraulic power units, fluid distribution manifolds, and industrial plumbing systems. The NPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight seal without requiring additional sealant tape, making it a common choice for fluid control work in both shop and field environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTransitions 1-inch male NPTF to 1\/2-inch female NPTF in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction rated to 375 degrees F for demanding thermal environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body profile allows engagement with standard wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF thread form provides a dry-seal, pressure-tight connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the 5406 Series hex pipe reducer bushing line\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 steel pipe adapter applications in hydraulic and industrial fluid systems requiring a 1-inch to 1\/2-inch NPTF threaded reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or hydraulic technicians depending on the application. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic or fluid line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Use a calibrated torque wrench and apply thread sealant per system requirements, noting that NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal engagement but sealant is acceptable for additional assurance. Follow applicable codes such as the IPC or relevant hydraulic system standards for assembly and pressure testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 375 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.33 pounds\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: 5406168\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67948857131314,"sku":"5406168","price":15.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/73088a50b3c40f28496a4c6a4e4dba37_089c5e5c-8bd7-478e-86fa-a9b4cbdf09c5.jpg?v=1791675083","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-5406168-hex-pipe-reducer-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
