Value Collection BD-12141 Reducing Coupling 1-1/2x1-1/4

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-12141 is a black steel reducing coupling designed to connect two pipes of different diameters in threaded piping systems. It transitions from a 1-1/2 inch pipe to a 1-1/4 inch pipe using NPT (National Pipe Taper) threaded end connections on both sides. Constructed from steel with a black finish, this coupling delivers the mechanical strength required for standard pipe assemblies in plumbing, compressed air, gas distribution, and general industrial piping. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a diameter reduction is needed without sacrificing thread integrity or system pressure rating.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where NPT-threaded steel fittings are specified. Typical install scenarios include branch line reductions in water supply systems, gas piping rough-ins, and compressed air distribution runs. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications per common field practice. Sold in a package quantity of two fittings per package.

Key Features

• Reduces from 1-1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch pipe diameter in a single fitting
• NPT threaded end connections on both sides for standard wrench installation
• Steel construction provides durability in pressure piping applications
• Black finish suitable for gas line and industrial piping use
• Compact form factor fits tight rough-in spaces
• Sold in a package of two couplings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard field fitting for threaded steel piping systems using 1-1/2 inch and 1-1/4 inch NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code (IPC), or the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where gas service is involved. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before makeup. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to bring the fitting to full thread engagement without over-torquing the connection.
