Built from malleable iron with a galvanized finish, this fitting handles liquid and gas service up to 300 psi and steam service up to 150 psi. It is a standard threaded fitting used in plumbing, HVAC piping, gas distribution, and light industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting during new construction, system expansion, and repair work on threaded iron pipe assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a pipe size reduction is required inline. Typical uses include natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, water supply piping, and hydronic heating loops. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance appropriate for exposed or mildly corrosive environments. The fitting conforms to Class 150 malleable iron standards, making it compatible with standard NPT threaded pipe systems in both above-ground and code-permitted below-ground installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for strength and impact resistance in threaded pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized finish provides corrosion protection for extended service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 300 psi for liquid and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 150 psi for steam service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass 150 fitting compatible with standard NPT threaded pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInline reducing design transitions 3\/4-inch to 1\/2-inch pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for Class 150 NPT threaded malleable iron pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and HVAC piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly, and tighten to a snug fit using pipe wrenches without over-torquing the malleable iron body. For gas service installations, verify all joints with an approved leak-detection method before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized\u003c\/li\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\u003eClass\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLiquid and Gas Pressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteam Pressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\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: 13073\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51718376390962,"sku":"13073","price":54.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bd568cf65b8f1a781f211b2933e6d4f6.jpg?v=1788552685","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-13073-malleable-iron-reducing-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
