Value Collection B240 32X15 Reducing Coupling 1-1/4x1/2 Threaded

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION B240 32X15 is a black malleable iron reducing coupling designed for threaded pipe assemblies in gas and liquid distribution systems. It steps down from a 1-1/4 inch female thread to a 1/2 inch female thread, allowing a direct inline reduction without additional fittings. Constructed from Class 150 malleable iron with a black finish, it carries a pressure rating of 300 psi, making it suitable for moderate-pressure gas and liquid service. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This reducing coupling is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where a pipe diameter change is required along a run. Common install scenarios include gas distribution lines, water supply systems, and industrial fluid-handling setups. The threaded end connections conform to multiple international standards, including ABNT, EN 10242, GB/T 3287, GB/T 7306.2, ISO 7/1, and FM Approved, along with cULus Listing, supporting use across a range of domestic and international project specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation 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) as required by the application. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before disassembling or fitting any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before making up the connection. Do not over-tighten, as malleable iron threads can be damaged by excessive torque.
