Legend Valve 312-014NL 1" x 3/4" Bronze Male Adapter NL
A no-lead bronze reducing adapter that joins 1" tubing to a 3/4" male NPT thread
- No-lead bronze construction for safer potable water
- 1" to 3/4" reducing adapter connects different pipe sizes
- Male NPT threads ensure secure, leak-resistant joints
- Durable bronze body resists corrosion in plumbing systems
- Complies with California Proposition 65 chemical disclosure requirements
Plumbing Reducing Adapter
The Legend Valve 312-014NL connects a 1 inch female thread to a 3/4 inch male pipe thread. It is intended for installers joining different pipe sizes in potable water systems. The no-lead bronze body meets low-lead requirements for drinking water applications.
Thermal and Power Behaviour
This passive fitting generates no heat and draws no power during operation. Fluid temperature and pressure limits depend on the piping system design rather than the adapter itself. No noise is produced under normal flow conditions.
Build and Connection Notes
The bronze construction resists corrosion in typical water supply environments. Male NPT threads require sealant or tape for a leak-free joint. California Proposition 65 warnings apply due to chemical content. Orders of 75 dollars or more ship free from the manufacturer.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1" x 3/4" No Lead Bronze Insert x MNPT Reducing Adapter without damaging the threads?
Wrap the male NPT threads with PTFE tape or pipe dope, thread the adapter into the female fitting by hand until snug, then tighten one to two turns with a wrench on the hex flats; over-tightening cracks the bronze body.
What maintenance or replacement will the No Lead Bronze Insert x MNPT Reducing Adapter need over time?
Inspect the joint annually for green corrosion or weeping; if the bronze shows dezincification or the threads leak after re-taping, replace the adapter — bronze fittings have no serviceable internal parts.
What is the first limit that appears when the adapter sees sustained hot-water circulation?
The bronze body softens and creep accelerates above its rated temperature, so the joint may weep at the threads long before the material yields.
