Value Collection G-BUS2010 Malleable Iron Pipe Bushing

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION G-BUS2010 is a malleable iron pipe bushing designed to reduce a 2-inch pipe thread down to a 1-inch pipe thread in threaded piping systems. Rated at 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam, this Class 150 fitting handles the pressure demands of standard commercial and industrial piping runs. A galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in exposed or moderately harsh environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of bushing when transitioning between pipe sizes within a threaded system, making it a common fitting in mechanical rooms, utility lines, and process piping layouts.

This bushing is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and general industrial piping where a threaded 2-inch-to-1-inch reduction is required. It is appropriate for liquid, gas, and low-pressure steam applications within its rated limits. The galvanized malleable iron construction makes it compatible with black iron and galvanized pipe assemblies in both indoor and sheltered outdoor installations.

Key Features

• Reduces 2-inch male threads to 1-inch female threads for in-line size transitions
• 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating for demanding service conditions
• 150 psi steam pressure rating suitable for low-pressure steam systems
• Class 150 malleable iron construction resists cracking and impact better than cast iron
• Galvanized finish for added corrosion resistance in wet or exposed environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Class 150 threaded pipe bushing compatible with NPT-threaded 2-inch and 1-inch pipe assemblies using galvanized or black malleable iron fittings.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded piping systems. Always depressurize and isolate the line before making or breaking threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten with pipe wrenches to achieve a leak-free joint. Follow applicable codes including the IPC and IFGC for pipe sizing, material compatibility, and pressure testing requirements.
