Value Collection MSC-62148119 Malleable Iron Pipe Bushing

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-62148119 is a malleable iron pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1-inch pipe connection down to a 1/2-inch fitting. Finished with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance, this Class 150 bushing carries a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi and a steam pressure rating of 150 psi. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting in threaded piping systems where a concentric pipe size reduction is needed without cutting or welding. The galvanized finish suits installations where mild corrosion exposure is a factor.

This bushing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC condensate and fluid lines, compressed air distribution, and low-pressure steam systems operating within the rated limits. It threads directly into a 1-inch female-threaded fitting or coupling, accepting a 1/2-inch male-threaded pipe or fitting on the outlet side. The Class 150 rating aligns with standard threaded pipe system requirements commonly encountered in mechanical rooms and utility installations.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and machinability for threaded pipe applications
• Galvanized finish delivers corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments
• 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating suits a wide range of service conditions
• 150 psi steam pressure rating meets low-pressure steam system requirements
• Class 150 fitting conforms to standard threaded piping system specifications
• 1 x 1/2 inch concentric reduction eliminates the need for additional adapter fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT threaded pipe systems requiring a 1-inch to 1/2-inch concentric bushing reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC and IFGC requirements. Shut off the fluid or gas supply and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not exceed the rated pressure limits for the intended service media.
