The hex profile allows a wrench to apply proper torque during installation, ensuring a secure, leak-free joint. Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for demanding fluid and gas service environments. This fitting is a standard component installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in both new construction and retrofit applications where pipe diameter transitions are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex bushing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and general industrial piping where NPT threaded connections are specified. It is commonly used in mechanical rooms, equipment rooms, and process piping runs to transition between different pipe sizes. The NPT thread standard ensures compatibility with the broad range of NPT-threaded valves, fittings, and pipe nipples used across the trade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and harsh service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body profile allows positive wrench engagement during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threaded end connections for compatibility with standard threaded pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor suitable for tight mechanical spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece construction with no moving parts or seals to fail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hex bushing for standard NPT threaded pipe systems across plumbing, HVAC hydronic, and general industrial piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC requirements. Always depressurize and drain the system before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as stainless fittings can gall under excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.85 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.74 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6HB3X21\/2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694090289458,"sku":"6HB3X21\/2","price":59.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d99b36d7aa28a5b8f2ee7af6a03fb472.jpg?v=1788320115","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-6hb3x21-2-stainless-steel-hex-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
