Value Collection 6HB11/2*11/4 Pipe Bushing 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6HB11/2*11/4 is a threaded pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/2 inch female pipe thread to a 1-1/4 inch male pipe thread connection. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, this bushing resists corrosion in harsh fluid and gas service environments. It carries a 150 psi pressure rating and conforms to Schedule 40 pipe standards. The MNPT x FNPT end connections allow direct threaded installation without additional adapters. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in process piping, chemical lines, and utility systems where a stainless steel reduction is required.

This bushing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, industrial process lines, and marine or coastal installations where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 316 stainless steel material provides improved resistance to chlorides compared to 304 grade, making it a common choice for saltwater exposure, chemical processing, and food-service piping. It installs anywhere a standard threaded hex bushing is called for in a 1-1/2 to 1-1/4 inch reduction application.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• MNPT x FNPT threaded ends for tool-based installation without welding or soldering
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for general-purpose piping service
• Schedule 40 rated for compatibility with standard pipe wall thicknesses
• 1-1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch reduction in a single fitting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded hex bushing for use with standard Schedule 40 MNPT x FNPT pipe systems requiring a 1-1/2 x 1-1/4 inch stainless steel reduction fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Isolate and depressurize the line before removal or installation of any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Tighten with a pipe wrench to the fitting flats — avoid over-tightening, which can crack stainless fittings. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements for piping system service.
