Value Collection B-RCP2015 Reducing Coupling 2x1.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION B-RCP2015 is a black malleable iron reducing coupling designed to connect pipe runs of two different diameters in threaded piping systems. Rated at Class 150 with a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi, this fitting transitions from a 2-inch pipe to a 1-1/2-inch pipe using standard threaded end connections. The black finish is applied after casting and is typical for gas and industrial piping applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting where a line size reduction is required without the use of a separate bushing or adapter.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems carrying gas, water, or compatible industrial fluids within the pressure limits of Class 150 malleable iron fittings. Threaded connections conform to standard tapered pipe thread patterns, making this fitting compatible with standard NPT-threaded pipe. It is commonly found in gas distribution lines, compressed air systems, and general plumbing rough-in work where a reduction from 2-inch to 1-1/2-inch pipe is required.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides durability and resistance to mechanical stress in threaded assemblies
• Black finish standard for gas and industrial pipe service
• Class 150 rating with 300 psi liquid and gas pressure capacity
• Threaded end connections on both ends for standard NPT pipe
• Reduces from 2-inch to 1-1/2-inch pipe in a single fitting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT-threaded malleable iron piping systems rated at Class 150 or lower.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before cutting into any existing piping. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all threaded joints per the applicable plumbing or gas code, such as the IPC or IFGC. Do not exceed the rated pressure of 300 psi for this fitting class.
