Value Brand 3/4" x 1/2" MNPT x FNPT 304 SS Hex Reducing Bushing
304 stainless steel hex reducing bushing connects 3/4 inch MNPT to 1/2 inch FNPT, rated 3000 psi at 100°F and 2500 psi steam at 350°F per ASME B16.11
- 304 stainless steel resists corrosion in harsh environments
- Class 3000 rating handles 3000 psi at 100°F
- MNPT x FNPT threads conform to ANSI/ASME B 1.20.1
- Meets ASME B 16.11 for dimensional accuracy
- ASTM A182 material certification ensures reliable composition
Product Identity
This ZORO SELECT hex reducing bushing is a 304 stainless steel pipe fitting built for Class 3000 service. It connects a 3/4 inch male NPT thread to a 1/2 inch female NPT thread in fluid-handling systems.
Build Integration
The fitting conforms to ASTM A-182 material requirements and ANSI/ASME B 1.20.1 thread dimensions while meeting ASME B 16.11 standards. It handles up to 3000 psi at 100 Degrees F and 2500 psi steam pressure at 350 Degrees F, reducing the need for separate pressure-rated adapters.
Target Installer
Installers needing a corrosion-resistant reduction between those specific NPT sizes in high-pressure or steam lines will find it suitable. It is not intended for applications requiring different thread forms, larger bore transitions, or lower pressure-class components.

Questions about this item
What is the maximum water pressure this 304 stainless steel bushing handles at 100 degrees F?
The fitting is rated for 3000 psi at 100 degrees F, which is the Class 3000 limit for continuous liquid service.
Does the hex body run hot or make noise when steam flows through at the 2500 psi rating?
Steam at 2500 psi and 350 degrees F will heat the metal to steam temperature; the bushing itself has no moving parts so it generates no noise.
Which pipe-thread standard must the mating 3/4 inch male and 1/2 inch female threads follow to seal properly?
Both threads conform to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1, so the connecting pipe and port must use the same taper-thread standard.
