Introducing the Anvil 2 in. MPT x 3/4 in. D FPT Galvanized Malleable Iron Hex Bushing β a rugged, dependable solution for transforming a 2" male pipe thread into a 3/4" female thread. Built to endure demanding piping environments, this hex bushing combines durable malleable iron with a galvanized finish for lasting performance.
Key features at a glance:
-
End connections: 2 in MPT (male pipe thread) to 3/4 in FPT (female pipe thread).
-
Material: Malleable iron for strength, resilience, and reliable machinability.
-
Finish: Galvanized coating to combat corrosion in moisture-prone or outdoor settings.
-
Maximum pressure: 300 psi, suitable for standard plumbing, heating, and light-to-medium industrial applications.
-
Hex design: Flat hex surfaces provide a secure grip for easy tightening and removal in tight spaces.
Why choose this hex bushing? Because it delivers a precise, durable reduction from a large 2" MPT to a compact 3/4" FPT without compromising flow or reliability. The galvanized finish shields against rust and wear, while the malleable iron construction stands up to vibration and minor misalignments that can occur in real-world installations.
Ideal applications include residential and commercial water lines, radiant heating and cooling systems, irrigation setups, and various industrial piping projects where a sturdy, space-saving reducer is needed. Itβs a practical choice for retrofits, repairs, and new installations alike, ensuring a solid seal and dependable performance over time.
Installation tips:
- Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads for a watertight seal.
- Tighten using a wrench once hand-tight is achieved; avoid overtightening to protect threads and the galvanized finish.
- Inspect threads and seating surfaces for damage or burrs before installation to ensure a leak-free joint.
