Value Collection 4HB21/2X2 Stainless Steel Hex Bushing Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4HB21/2X2 is a stainless steel hex bushing designed for reducing or adapting NPT-threaded pipe connections in plumbing and piping systems. The hex body profile allows for firm wrench engagement during installation, making it straightforward to achieve a leak-free threaded joint. Fabricated from stainless steel, this bushing resists corrosion in demanding service environments. It measures approximately 1.65 inches in height and 3.15 inches in width, and weighs 0.69 pounds. This fitting is a standard single-piece unit suited for professional pipe work where reliable threaded reduction is required.

This hex bushing is appropriate for use in commercial and residential piping systems where NPT-threaded fittings are standard. Typical applications include pipe size reductions in water, steam, or compatible fluid lines. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a male NPT thread on the smaller end must mate with a larger female NPT-threaded port or fitting. It is sold and packaged as a single unit.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and process environments
• NPT threads on both ends for standard compatibility with threaded pipe systems
• Hex body design allows wrench engagement for proper torque and sealing
• Height of 1.65 inches and width of 3.15 inches for compact installation clearance
• Single-piece construction with no moving parts or seals to replace

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for NPT-threaded stainless steel pipe systems requiring a hex bushing reducer.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the relevant pipe section completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads prior to assembly. Do not overtighten; use the hex body with a properly sized wrench to achieve a secure, leak-free connection without damaging the threads.
