Brass bushings of this type are standard fittings used to adapt between pipe sizes in water supply, compressed air, and general fluid-handling systems. The lead-free construction meets safe drinking water requirements, making this bushing suitable for potable water plumbing installations. Weighing just 0.04 pounds, it is a compact fitting intended for close-quarters connections where a reducing adapter is needed between threaded ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is commonly installed in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a larger-threaded port must accept a smaller-diameter pipe or fitting. Typical applications include water supply lines, pressure gauge ports, valve inlets, and manifold connections. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction and retrofit work alike. It threads directly into a 3\/8-inch female NPT opening and accepts a 1\/4-inch male NPT connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets safe drinking water standards for potable water use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces a 3\/8-inch female thread to a 1\/4-inch male thread in a single compact fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard threaded engagement compatible with NPT-style pipe thread systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.04 pounds, suitable for tight or confined installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded reducing bushing for use in 3\/8-inch female NPT to 1\/4-inch male NPT pipe thread applications in potable water, compressed air, and general fluid-handling systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is installed by licensed plumbers following applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before threading in the bushing. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe compound to the male threads before installation to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten; brass fittings are susceptible to thread damage if excessive force is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches female\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches male\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 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 METAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 706110-0604\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51396434493746,"sku":"706110-0604","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312834318.jpg?v=1782831881","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-metal-706110-0604-threaded-brass-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
