Built to a 3000 class pressure rating, this coupling transitions from a 3\/4-inch female NPT connection to a 1\/2-inch female NPT connection. The black finish indicates a standard mill-applied protective coating common on carbon steel pipe fittings. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on gas, air, or water distribution systems where a reduction in pipe size is required at a threaded joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for use in residential and light commercial piping applications where NPT-threaded steel fittings are specified. Typical uses include natural gas distribution, compressed air lines, and black iron pipe systems. The 3000 class rating makes it appropriate for moderate-pressure service. Sold in a package of 5 units, this fitting is a practical stocking item for service contractors and plumbing supply operations that regularly encounter 3\/4-inch to 1\/2-inch reduction connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces from 3\/4-inch NPT to 1\/2-inch NPT in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3000 class pressure rating for moderate-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded NPT end connections for standard wrench installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction with black mill finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a 5-pack for efficient stocking and service use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard stock fitting for threaded black iron pipe systems using NPT connections at 3\/4-inch and 1\/2-inch pipe sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code where relevant. Shut off the supply line and depressurize the system before threading this coupling into place. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or strip threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12137\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721072836914,"sku":"12137","price":60.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6850b7900caa22adec0544d62510f095.jpg?v=1788573163","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-12137-reducing-coupling-3-4x1-2-npt-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
