Value Collection PC110NB-42 Brass Pipe Bushing 1/4x1/8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PC110NB-42 is a brass pipe bushing designed to reduce a 1/4-inch male NPT fitting down to a 1/8-inch female NPT port. It serves as a threaded adapter in plumbing, HVAC, and pneumatic systems where different pipe sizes must be joined without additional fittings. Rated to 1,000 psi, this bushing handles the pressure demands found in most residential and light commercial fluid and gas line applications. The nickel-plated finish provides added corrosion resistance over bare brass, making it suitable for installations where moisture or mild chemical exposure is a concern. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians regularly stock this style of bushing for field repairs and new construction alike.

This bushing is used wherever a 1/4-inch male threaded connection must mate with a 1/8-inch female threaded port. Common applications include compressed air lines, water supply lines, natural gas and propane piping headers, hydraulic manifolds, and HVAC refrigerant or control-line fittings. Its compact hex-body design allows installation with a standard open-end or adjustable wrench in tight spaces. The 1,000 psi pressure rating covers the operating range of most residential and light commercial systems using this fitting size.

Key Features

• Reduces 1/4-inch male NPT to 1/8-inch female NPT in a single fitting
• Rated to 1,000 psi for use in fluid, gas, and pneumatic lines
• Nickel-plated brass construction for corrosion resistance
• Threaded MNPT x FNPT ends for tool-tightened, leak-resistant connections
• Compact form factor suitable for installation in tight or confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-inch MNPT to 1/8-inch FNPT threaded pipe bushing compatible with any system or port accepting NPT-threaded fittings at these sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes and standards such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off all pressure to the line before threading in or removing any fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope rated for the media being carried before installation. Do not overtighten; hand-tighten first, then snug with a wrench to avoid cracking the fitting body or damaging mating threads.
