Made from malleable iron with a black finish, this Class 150 fitting transitions from a 1\/2-inch female thread to a 1\/4-inch female thread. It carries a 300 psi pressure rating, making it suitable for a range of commercial and residential piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting as part of gas supply, compressed air, or water distribution runs where a step-down connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is intended for use in threaded iron pipe systems found in residential and light commercial construction. It is well suited for natural gas distribution piping, compressed air lines, and similar low-to-medium pressure fluid systems where a transition from 1\/2-inch to 1\/4-inch pipe is needed. The fitting is sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 2 units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction with black finish for durability in piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass 150 rated with a 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded end connections on both ends for standard NPT pipe assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces from 1\/2-inch to 1\/4-inch pipe diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets multiple international and domestic standards including FM Approved and cULus Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertified to ABNT, EN 10242, GB\/T 3287, GB\/T 7306.2, ISO 7\/1, and Enterprise Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded malleable iron pipe systems, Class 150, conforming to ABNT, EN 10242, GB\/T 3287, GB\/T 7306.2, and ISO 7\/1 specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where applicable. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before disassembling or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly.
