Value Collection G240 50X40 Reducing Coupling 2x1.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION G240 50X40 is a malleable iron reducing coupling designed to connect threaded pipe sections of two different diameters in a single inline fitting. It transitions from a 2-inch pipe to a 1-1/2-inch pipe and carries a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi and a steam pressure rating of 150 psi. Finished with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance, this Class 150 fitting meets ISO 7/1 threading standards. It is suitable for plumbing, piping, and mechanical systems where a reduction in pipe size is required without the use of additional adapters or bushings.

This reducing coupling is used in residential and commercial piping systems handling liquid, gas, or low-pressure steam lines. Typical applications include water supply lines, compressed air systems, gas distribution piping, and general mechanical piping assemblies. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting during new construction, system retrofits, or repair work where a pipe diameter change is needed at an inline joint.

Key Features

• Reduces from 2-inch to 1-1/2-inch pipe in a single threaded coupling
• 300 psi pressure rating for liquid and gas service
• 150 psi pressure rating for steam service
• Malleable iron construction with galvanized finish for corrosion resistance
• Class 150 rated, manufactured to ISO 7/1 threading standard
• Threaded end connections for tool-only installation with no soldering or welding

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Class 150 malleable iron threaded reducing coupling for use with 2-inch by 1-1/2-inch NPT-threaded pipe in liquid, gas, and low-pressure steam piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free connection. Do not exceed the rated pressure limits for the intended service type.
