3/8" MNPT x 1/4" FNPT Galvanized Hex Bushing
This new galvanized hex bushing connects a 3/8 inch male NPT thread to a 1/4 inch female NPT thread. It is built from forged steel rated for Class 3000 service. The fitting suits plumbing and fluid-transfer assemblies that require a step-down in pipe size.
Forged steel construction and galvanized coating
The forged steel body provides structural strength for high-pressure Class 3000 piping systems. Galvanizing adds a protective zinc layer that resists corrosion in water, air and oil lines. These material choices extend service life in harsh industrial or automotive environments.
Class 3000 pressure rating determines suitability
This single rating defines the maximum working pressure the bushing can safely contain. Installers must verify that the system pressure never exceeds the Class 3000 limit. Buyers who need a higher pressure class or a different thread combination cannot use this fitting.

Questions about this item
Will the galvanized coating on this hex bushing need replacement to maintain corrosion resistance?
The galvanized finish provides long-term protection; no recoating or replacement is required under normal plumbing conditions.
What pressure limit will this Class 3000 forged steel bushing reach first under sustained use?
The fitting is rated for Class 3000 service, so the 3000 psi pressure ceiling is the primary limit during continuous operation.
Does this 3/8" MNPT x 1/4" FNPT bushing generate heat or noise when installed in a system running all day?
As a passive forged steel fitting with NPT threads, it produces no heat or noise regardless of how long the system operates.
