Value Collection 4HB2*11/2 Pipe Bushing 2x1.5 in Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4HB2*11/2 is a threaded pipe bushing designed to reduce a 2-inch male pipe thread to a 1-1/2-inch female pipe thread in a single fitting. Constructed from 304 stainless steel, it offers solid corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, or outdoor environments. The MNPT x FNPT connection type allows it to thread directly into standard pipe fittings without additional adapters. Rated to 150 psi, it handles typical low-to-medium pressure plumbing and process piping service. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians install this type of bushing where line size reduction is needed at a threaded joint.

This bushing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing systems, light industrial process lines, and mechanical room piping where 304 stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance. Common install scenarios include reducing threaded iron or stainless pipe at valves, gauges, or equipment connections. The 2-inch male end threads into a 2-inch fitting or valve body, while the 1-1/2-inch female end accepts a 1-1/2-inch male-threaded pipe or nipple.

Key Features

• 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• MNPT x FNPT threaded ends for tool-only, no-weld installation
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for standard plumbing and process service
• Reduces 2-inch male NPT to 1-1/2-inch female NPT in a single fitting
• Compact bushing form factor fits directly inside a 2-inch threaded port

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded pipe bushing compatible with 2-inch MNPT x 1-1/2-inch FNPT connections in 150 psi-rated threaded piping systems using NPT-standard fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before threading in the bushing. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as stainless steel threads can gall if excessive torque is applied without proper lubrication.
