Value Collection 1XE.NSB Malleable Iron Pipe Bushing

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1XE.NSB is a malleable iron pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-inch female threaded pipe connection down to a 3/4-inch male threaded connection. Manufactured from Class 150 malleable iron with a galvanized finish coating, this bushing is rated for liquid and gas service at 300 psi and steam service at 150 psi. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this bushing when transitioning between pipe sizes in threaded piping assemblies for water, gas, and steam distribution systems.

This bushing is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a threaded reducer fitting is needed between 1-inch and 3/4-inch pipe runs. Typical installations include domestic water supply lines, natural gas distribution piping, steam heating systems, and general industrial fluid handling. The Class 150 pressure rating makes it appropriate for low-to-medium pressure service lines where malleable iron fittings are the standard of practice.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction with galvanized finish for corrosion resistance
• 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating
• 150 psi steam pressure rating
• Class 150 fitting standard
• Reduces 1-inch female thread to 3/4-inch male thread

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit component for threaded malleable iron piping systems using NPT connections in Class 150 applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for threaded pipe assemblies. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
