It transitions from a 1-1\/4 inch female connection to a 1 inch female connection using standard NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads on both ends. This fitting is suited for use in gas distribution, compressed air, and general-purpose plumbing lines where a reduction in pipe diameter is required. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of coupling during new construction and repair work. Each package contains 2 couplings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where threaded black steel pipe is the standard, including natural gas supply lines, fuel oil distribution, and compressed air systems. The black finish is typical of uncoated or mill-finish steel fittings commonly specified for gas service. It installs using standard pipe wrenches and thread sealant or approved pipe thread compound applied to the male threads of the mating pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces from 1-1\/4 inch to 1 inch in a single threaded fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threaded end connections on both sides for standard pipe compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability in pressure-bearing piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish consistent with standard black iron pipe fittings used in gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 2-pack, minimizing trips for common repair and installation jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use fitting for threaded black steel piping systems using 1-1\/4 inch and 1 inch NPT connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the gas supply or isolate the compressed air or fluid line completely before disassembling any threaded joint. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all male NPT threads before assembly. Tighten with a pipe wrench to proper thread engagement; do not over-torque, which can crack fittings or strip threads. Gas line work must comply with local codes and applicable IFGC requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 1-1\/4 x 1 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\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175303\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12140\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710263492914,"sku":"12140","price":58.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/71f9f3c25fd7441418f09b3877957788.jpg?v=1788464932","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-12140-black-steel-reducing-coupling-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
