Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION B240 25X15 is a black malleable iron reducing coupling used to connect pipes 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 1-inch female thread to a 1/2-inch female thread. The black finish is standard for gas and industrial piping applications. It carries a range of certifications including FM Approval and cULus listing, making it suitable for systems requiring code-compliant fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers of this type of component.

This reducing coupling is used in residential and light commercial gas distribution, fire protection, compressed air, and general fluid conveyance systems where a threaded pipe reduction is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and standards such as the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before disassembling or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; use a pipe wrench with appropriate leverage for the fitting size only.
