Midland Industries 81119-0804 Reducing Coupling Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 81119-0804 is a chrome-plated brass reducing coupling designed to connect two different pipe sizes in a single fitting. It transitions from a 1/2-inch connection on one end to a 1/4-inch connection on the other, making it a practical choice for plumbing and fluid-system applications where pipe diameter reductions are required inline. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in both wet and dry service environments. The chrome plating adds a finished appearance suitable for exposed installations. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of supply lines, distribution manifolds, and other piped systems.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a 1/2-inch-to-1/4-inch size reduction is needed. Typical use cases include supply line transitions, compressed-air branch connections, and other fluid-distribution runs. The compact profile, measuring approximately 1.15 inches in length and 1 inch in height and width, fits into tight spaces without requiring additional adapters. The chrome-plated finish is consistent with the broader chrome-plated brass fittings product line, making it a compatible visual and functional match for chrome-finished piping runs.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style reducing coupling for plumbing and fluid-system applications requiring a 1/2-inch to 1/4-inch pipe size transition with a chrome-plated brass fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water or fluid supply and relieve line pressure before removing any existing fittings or making new connections. Use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on threaded connections as required by the system and local code. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as brass fittings can crack under excessive force.
