Value Collection B240 25X20 Reducing Coupling 1x3/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION B240 25X20 is a black malleable iron reducing coupling designed for threaded pipe connections in both liquid and gas distribution systems. It reduces from a 1-inch female thread to a 3/4-inch female thread, making it a standard fitting choice for branch reductions in piping runs. Rated at Class 150 with a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi, this coupling meets the demands of light commercial and industrial service conditions. The black finish is typical of fire-protection and general-purpose black iron piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction and retrofit work.

This reducing coupling is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, fire suppression, and gas distribution piping where a threaded malleable iron fitting is specified. It carries a 1-inch inlet and a 3/4-inch outlet, both with tapered or straight threads per the applicable standards. The fitting is supplied individually and is a direct-use component in threaded pipe assemblies wherever a pipe size reduction is required along a run.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for threaded malleable iron pipe systems requiring a 1-inch to 3/4-inch reduction in residential and commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes, including IPC and IFGC where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive torque.
