Value Collection -13072-1G Reducing Coupling 3/4x1/4 Inch

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -13072-1G is a malleable iron reducing coupling designed to connect pipe runs of different diameters in plumbing, HVAC, and gas distribution systems. It transitions a 3/4-inch line down to a 1/4-inch line and carries a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi and a steam pressure rating of 150 psi. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in both wet and dry service environments. This Class 150 fitting is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on threaded iron pipe systems.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a threaded iron pipe system requires a diameter reduction inline. Typical uses include gas supply lines, steam distribution, compressed air, and water service piping. The Class 150 designation makes it appropriate for standard-pressure service runs. It threads onto NPT-compatible pipe ends and requires no special tooling beyond a pipe wrench and appropriate thread sealant or tape.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for strength and resistance to impact in threaded pipe systems
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and gas service environments
• 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating
• 150 psi steam pressure rating
• Class 150 fitting for standard-pressure service
• Reduces 3/4-inch pipe to 1/4-inch pipe in a single inline fitting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded malleable iron pipe systems using NPT connections in Class 150 service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before removing any existing fitting or threading this coupling into place. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant compound or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
