Value Collection 13891G Black Reducing Coupling 3/4x1/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13891G is a black malleable iron reducing coupling designed to connect pipes of two different sizes in a single inline fitting. It transitions from a 3/4-inch female thread on the larger end to a 1/4-inch female thread on the smaller end. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications. Built to Class 150 standards, this coupling carries a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi, making it suitable for moderate-pressure gas and fluid distribution systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both new construction and retrofit work.

This reducing coupling is used in residential and light commercial piping systems where a branch or mainline must step down in size. Common applications include natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, and general-purpose liquid piping. The threaded end connections conform to standard NPT tapered thread dimensions, allowing it to mate with standard black iron pipe and fittings throughout a system. It is a practical stock fitting for service trucks and job-site inventory.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and resistance to mechanical shock in piping systems
• Black finish is compatible with standard gas piping installations
• Class 150 rated with a 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating
• Threaded NPT end connections on both ends for straightforward assembly
• Reduces from 3/4-inch to 1/4-inch inline without additional adapters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stocking fitting for standard NPT-threaded black iron pipe systems in residential and light commercial gas, air, and fluid piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC requirements for gas piping. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before disassembly or fitting installation. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all threaded connections. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
