Brass Bushing 1/2 Male NPT 1/8 Female NPT
This brass bushing reduces a 1/2 inch male NPT thread down to a 1/8 inch female NPT thread. It is suited for plumbers and maintenance technicians adapting pipe sizes in fluid-handling systems. The straight body allows direct installation without extra fittings.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw in Normal Use
The fitting is a passive brass component with no moving parts, electrical draw or cooling requirements. It produces no audible noise and generates no heat during operation. Pressure containment is rated to 200 psi maximum operating pressure under normal service conditions.
Replaces Larger Female Threaded Ports
This bushing replaces the need for a larger female port when a smaller 1/8 inch female connection is required on a 1/2 inch male pipe end. The jump is worth it when reducing port size in brass piping systems without introducing additional leak paths or assembly length. It is not for buyers who need a different thread standard or a higher pressure rating than 200 psi.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1/2 in Male NPT end without cross-threading?
Start the brass bushing by hand for at least three full turns before using a wrench; the 1/2 in Male NPT taper will seal when the threads bottom out.
Will the brass threads need replacement from dezincification?
Brass resists dezincification in typical water systems; inspect annually and replace only if green powder appears on the 1/8 in Female NPT threads.
At what pressure does the 200 psi rating become the limiting factor?
The 200 psi Maximum Operating Pressure is the first limit reached; sustained pressure above that value can cause the brass bushing to leak or crack.
