Value Collection G240 10X8 Reducing Coupling 3/8x1/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION G240 10X8 is a galvanized malleable iron reducing coupling designed to connect pipes of two different diameters in a single inline fitting. It transitions from a 3/8-inch female thread to a 1/4-inch female thread using standard threaded end connections. Rated at 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam service, this coupling is built for demanding pressure environments. The malleable iron construction delivers the durability and ductility required for industrial and commercial pipe systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in gas, water, and general fluid distribution lines.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and low-pressure gas distribution where a step-down connection between 3/8-inch and 1/4-inch pipe is required. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in exposed or moderately wet environments. The fitting is sold individually and is appropriate wherever a compact, threaded inline reducer is needed without the use of a bushing and coupling combination.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard threaded malleable iron pipe systems using 3/8-inch to 1/4-inch NPT connections in gas, liquid, and steam service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, following applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for the fluid being conveyed. Do not over-tighten; hand-tighten and then use a pipe wrench for final seating without stressing the fitting body.
