Value Collection 13109D Malleable Iron Pipe Bushing

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13109D is a malleable iron threaded pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/4 inch female pipe thread to a 3/4 inch male pipe thread. It carries a Class 150 pressure rating of 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam service. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in wet and exposed installations. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this type of bushing to transition between pipe sizes within a threaded fitting assembly without additional adapters or couplings.

This bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, compressed air, and gas distribution systems where a concentric threaded reduction is required at a fitting, valve, or equipment port. It is sold in a package quantity of 5 units, making it practical for service vans and job-site stock.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction handles mechanical stress and vibration better than cast iron in threaded applications
• Galvanized finish resists corrosion in damp or exposed piping environments
• 300 psi rated for liquid and gas service at Class 150 designation
• 150 psi steam pressure rating suitable for low-pressure steam systems
• Concentric bushing design reduces 1-1/4 inch to 3/4 inch in a single threaded fitting
• Package quantity of 5 supports multi-point installations and field stock

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard service bushing for threaded malleable iron piping systems using NPT connections in Class 150 liquid, gas, and steam service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for the service type. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before disassembling any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before threading the bushing into the female fitting. Do not over-torque threaded malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
