Value Collection Ldbx 40X25-NPT-3000 Pipe Bushing Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LDBX 40X25-NPT-3000 is a threaded pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/2 inch female NPT port down to a 1 inch male NPT connection. Constructed from 304/304L stainless steel, it delivers corrosion resistance suitable for demanding fluid and gas piping applications. The bushing is rated to 3,000 psi, making it appropriate for high-pressure systems. It ships as a single piece and is used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors who need a reliable, pressure-rated reducer fitting in stainless construction.

This bushing is suited for residential and commercial piping installations where dissimilar pipe sizes must be joined at a threaded connection point. Typical applications include water supply lines, compressed air systems, hydraulic piping, and process fluid lines where stainless steel material is required for corrosion resistance or sanitary compliance. The MNPT x FNPT end configuration allows it to thread directly into a female-threaded fitting or valve body on one end and accept a male-threaded pipe or fitting on the other.

Key Features

• 304/304L stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• 3,000 psi pressure rating suitable for high-pressure piping systems
• 1-1/2 inch FNPT inlet to 1 inch MNPT outlet reducer configuration
• Threaded end connections for tool-based installation without welding or special tooling
• Compact hex bushing form factor fits standard pipe wrenches and fitting wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded reducer bushing for use in 1-1/2 inch to 1 inch NPT piping systems requiring 304 or 304L stainless steel fittings rated to 3,000 psi.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and ASME B31 piping code requirements. Depressurize and isolate the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten with a pipe wrench to the fitting manufacturer's recommended engagement depth. Do not over-torque stainless steel threads, as galling can occur.
