The larger end carries male NPT threads and the smaller end carries female NPT threads, creating a secure, leak-resistant transition between pipe sizes. The hex body profile accepts standard wrenches for controlled installation and removal, which matters in compact or restricted-access installations. With its 316 stainless alloy construction, this bushing delivers strong resistance to corrosion, chlorides, acids, and aggressive chemicals, making it well suited for demanding service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing sees frequent use in marine plumbing, chemical processing lines, pharmaceutical piping, and sanitary systems where corrosion resistance and material compatibility are critical. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit work wherever a threaded pipe reduction from 1 inch to 1\/2 inch is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers in commercial and industrial settings, though it is also used in residential marine and specialty plumbing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion, chlorides, and harsh chemicals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale NPT threads on the larger end, female NPT threads on the smaller end\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body profile allows use of standard open-end or adjustable wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 150 pressure rating suitable for general threaded piping service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact bushing form factor fits tight spaces where full couplings will not\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, one piece per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded pipe fitting for use in 1 inch to 1\/2 inch NPT threaded piping systems constructed with Schedule 40 or compatible pipe in 316 stainless steel or mixed-metal systems where stainless fittings are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid to the male NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as excessive torque can crack or gall stainless steel threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPT x Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch (male NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (female NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.22 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: MSI PRODUCTS INC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: A324001608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MSI PRODUCTS INC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68048844423474,"sku":"A324001608","price":16.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/afdbe62a3f10e2074bf1577456ef946d_2a87ff50-d442-485a-a7d2-ac208515cd97.jpg?v=1792982106","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/msi-products-inc-a324001608-316-ss-hex-bushing-1x1-2-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
