Mueller Streamline BUS00015 Reducer Bushing 1-1/2x1 in

Product Description

The MUELLER STREAMLINE BUS00015 is a copper reducer bushing coupling designed to connect pipes of two different diameters in a plumbing system. It transitions from a 1-1/2 inch to a 1 inch line using a fitting-to-copper (FTG x C) connection configuration. At 0.24 pounds and measuring 2.37 inches in length with a 1.63 inch profile, this bushing is compact and straightforward to work with. It meets multiple ASME standards, making it appropriate for use in potable water, HVAC hydronic, and general copper piping installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This reducer bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a 1-1/2 inch line must step down to a 1 inch copper line. The FTG x C ends allow the fitting to be soldered directly into a copper assembly. It is commonly used in supply line reductions, branch takeoffs, and retrofit applications where pipe sizing changes along a run.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style copper reducer bushing for use in standard residential and commercial copper pipe systems requiring a 1-1/2 inch to 1 inch FTG x C transition.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber following applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Clean and flux both the fitting socket and copper tube end thoroughly before soldering to ensure a leak-free joint. Avoid overheating the fitting during the soldering process, as excessive heat can compromise the joint integrity.
