Value Collection 13357 Black Iron Pipe Bushing 1x1/2 in Class 150

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13357 is a malleable iron pipe bushing with a black finish, designed to reduce a 1-inch female threaded connection down to a 1/2-inch male threaded connection. Built to Class 150 standards, this bushing carries a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi, making it suitable for both low-pressure gas and fluid piping systems. The black finish provides corrosion resistance in standard service environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during rough-in and service work where pipe diameter transitions are required in threaded iron pipe systems.

This bushing is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems where malleable iron threaded fittings are specified. Typical applications include water supply lines, natural gas branch lines, and compressed air distribution piping. It connects directly into any standard NPT-threaded 1-inch female socket and accepts a 1/2-inch NPT male threaded pipe or fitting on the outlet end. Each package contains 5 pieces.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for the fluid or gas being conveyed. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque.
