Value Brand 3/4" x 3/8" MNPT x FNPT 304 SS Hex Reducing Bushing

SKU CH-1F6F-XWGW4

304 stainless steel hex reducing bushing connects 3/4-inch male NPT to 3/8-inch female NPT for Schedule 160 piping

  • 304 stainless steel resists corrosion in demanding environments
  • Class 3000 rating supports high-pressure piping systems
  • Schedule 160 compatibility handles thick-wall pipe installations
  • Male-to-female NPT threads connect 3/4 in and 3/8 in sizes
  • Hex design allows secure tightening with standard wrenches

Product Identity

This 304 stainless steel hex reducing bushing connects a 3/4 inch male NPT thread to a 3/8 inch female NPT thread. It is built for plumbers and maintenance technicians who need a durable, corrosion-resistant transition in fluid or gas lines. The Class 3000 rating and Schedule 160 compatibility suit demanding industrial piping systems.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion and chemical attack during continuous exposure to harsh media. Ball blasting provides a uniform surface finish that helps maintain sealing integrity over long service periods. Rated for Class 3000 and Schedule 160 pipe, the fitting withstands high internal pressures without deformation or leakage under steady-state operating conditions.

Deciding Specification

The male thread size is 3/4 inch with 14 threads per inch while the female thread size is 3/8 inch with 18 threads per inch. This exact thread combination determines whether the bushing matches the existing pipework. California Proposition 65 warnings apply due to chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

Will the 304 stainless steel body stay cool and leak-free during continuous high-pressure service?

The bushing is rated Class 3000 for Schedule 160 pipe, so it handles the pressure and heat of all-day hydraulic or steam lines without weeping.

What thread sealant and pipe schedule must I already have to install this MNPT x FNPT reducer?

You need male 3/4 in.-14 NPT and female 3/8 in.-18 NPT threads on Schedule 160 pipe, plus PTFE tape or pipe dope rated for stainless steel.

Can this Class 3000 bushing join directly to existing Schedule 160 stainless piping without galvanic corrosion?

Yes — both ports are 304 stainless, so it matches Schedule 160 stainless pipe of the same alloy and avoids dissimilar-metal attack.
