Value Collection 13105 Malleable Iron Pipe Bushing 3/4x3/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13105 is a malleable iron pipe bushing designed to reduce a 3/4-inch female pipe thread to a 3/8-inch male pipe thread. Finished with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance, this Class 150 bushing carries a pressure rating of 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam service. It is a standard threaded fitting used in piping assemblies across plumbing, HVAC, and industrial fluid-handling applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this bushing when reducing pipe sizes within a run or at equipment connections.

This bushing suits residential and light commercial piping systems handling water, air, gas, and steam within its rated pressure limits. It is commonly installed at branch connections, valve inlets, equipment ports, and manifold assemblies where a size reduction from 3/4-inch to 3/8-inch NPT is required. The galvanized finish makes it suitable for exposed or mildly corrosive environments. It ships in a package quantity of five, making it practical for service trucks and job-site stock.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not exceed the rated pressure limits for the service media in use.
