Stainless steel reducing bushing

The Value Brand 316 stainless steel reducing bushing connects 1-1/4 inch and 1/2 inch stainless steel piping in commercial or industrial systems. It provides a corrosion-resistant joint for extending or altering existing stainless steel pipework. Installers working with stainless steel piping use this fitting for system modifications.

Corrosion resistance in service

The 316 grade stainless steel construction resists corrosion in stainless steel piping systems during normal operation. The material choice supports longevity in commercial and industrial environments where chemical exposure occurs. No thermal, noise or power characteristics apply to this passive mechanical fitting.

Hex profile for installation

The hex reducing bushing design allows standard tool engagement for tightening during assembly. California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm. No bundled accessories or software accompany this fitting.

Questions about this item

How is the 316 stainless steel reducing bushing installed, and what step do people often get wrong?

Thread the 1-1/4 in male end into the larger female fitting and the 1/2 in female end accepts the smaller pipe; the common error is skipping thread sealant or over-tightening, which can crack the fitting.

What maintenance or replacement will the 316 stainless steel reducing bushing need later?

Inspect threads and sealing surfaces periodically for corrosion or galling; replace the bushing if leaks appear or if the hex flats show rounding from repeated wrenching.

What limit shows up first on the 316 stainless steel reducing bushing under sustained use?

The fitting carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm, so long-term exposure to aggressive fluids or temperatures beyond the material rating may degrade the stainless steel first.
