Value Collection 13349 Black Pipe Bushing 3/8x1/8 Class 150

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13349 is a black malleable iron pipe bushing designed to reduce a 3/8-inch female threaded port down to a 1/8-inch male threaded connection. Finished in black, this Class 150 fitting is rated for 300 psi across liquid and gas service, making it suitable for a wide range of plumbing, gas distribution, and compressed-air piping systems. Both ends are threaded for standard NPT engagement. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting during rough-in and system assembly work.

This bushing is used in residential and light commercial piping applications wherever a threaded size reduction is needed between 3/8-inch and 1/8-inch connections. Common installation scenarios include natural gas supply lines, steam systems, water distribution headers, and compressed-air manifolds. The malleable iron construction and black finish are standard for above-ground gas and steam piping where galvanized fittings are not required.

Key Features

• Reduces 3/8-inch female NPT to 1/8-inch male NPT in a single fitting
• Class 150 malleable iron rated to 300 psi for liquid and gas service
• Black finish suitable for gas and steam piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT threaded piping systems requiring a 3/8-inch to 1/8-inch reducing bushing in Class 150 malleable iron.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the affected line before fitting installation. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten; hand-snug plus wrench turns appropriate to pipe size is standard practice per fitting manufacturer guidelines.
