Value Collection MDG241 40X32 Pipe Bushing 1-1/2x1-1/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MDG241 40X32 is a malleable iron threaded pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/2 inch female threaded port down to a 1-1/4 inch male threaded connection. Built to Class 150 standards and rated at 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam, this bushing handles the pressure demands found in commercial and industrial piping systems. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or exposed environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting as part of standard threaded pipe assemblies.

This bushing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and steam piping applications where a concentric reduction between threaded pipe ends is required. The threaded end connection conforms to ISO 7/1 standards, making it compatible with standard NPT and BSP pipe thread systems used across trade plumbing and mechanical work. It is a direct-install component requiring no additional adapters in typical threaded pipe configurations.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for strength and impact resistance in threaded pipe assemblies
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or exposed installations
• 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating for demanding service conditions
• 150 psi steam pressure rating suitable for low-pressure steam systems
• Threaded end connections conforming to ISO 7/1 standards
• Class 150 fitting for use in standard-pressure piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for standard 1-1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch threaded malleable iron pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and steam service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where gas service is involved. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
