Msi Products Inc A204006416 Malleable Iron Hex Bushing

Product Description

The MSI PRODUCTS INC A204006416 is a 150 lb malleable iron hex bushing designed to reduce a female-threaded opening by threading directly into an existing fitting. Featuring male x female threads, it steps down pipe size without adding length to the system. The 4 inch x 1 inch configuration handles working pressures from 150 to 300 psi and is built to a heavy pattern design for strength and durability in demanding plumbing and piping applications. Installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters, this bushing weighs 4.54 pounds and is packaged individually.

This hex bushing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, steam, and gas piping systems where a compact pipe-size reduction is required at a threaded fitting. The hex head design accepts standard pipe wrenches and fitting tools, making it practical for both new installations and retrofit work. It is finished in black and sold as a single unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and IFGC codes. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten with a properly sized pipe wrench. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
