Legend Valve 352-632 Hex Bushing

This galvanised hex bushing reduces a 2-1/2 inch female NPT connection to a 3/4 inch male NPT thread. It suits plumbers and maintenance teams joining dissimilar pipe sizes in water or gas distribution systems. The fitting is supplied new and ready for installation.

Galvanised Steel Construction

The galvanised coating protects the steel body against corrosion in damp or outdoor environments. A hexagonal exterior allows a standard wrench to apply torque without rounding the fitting. Tapered NPT threads create a seal when combined with appropriate thread tape or compound.

Threaded Connection Limits

The connection relies on tapered pipe threads that require sealant to prevent leaks under pressure. The bushing does not incorporate a gasket or compression ring, so joint integrity depends on correct assembly technique. California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the presence of chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

Does the 2-1/2 x 3/4 galvanized hex bushing use NPT threads for pipe connections?

The fitting is specified as FNPT on the 2-1/2 inch side and MNPT on the 3/4 inch side, so it connects to standard National Pipe Thread components.

What clearance does the hex bushing need for a wrench to tighten it?

The external hex flats on the bushing provide the gripping surface; allow enough space around the fitting for a standard pipe wrench or adjustable spanner to engage fully.

How is the thread seal made when installing this hex bushing, and what step is often missed?

Apply PTFE tape or pipe dope to the male NPT threads only, then tighten until the joint is snug and leak-free; the common error is over-tightening, which can crack the galvanized casting.
