Red brass hex bushing connects 1 inch male NPT to 3/4 inch female NPT at 200 psi

  • Red brass construction resists corrosion
  • Class 125 rating handles 200 psi operating pressure
  • 1 inch male NPT to 3/4 inch female threaded connection
  • California Proposition 65 chemical warning applies
  • New condition ready for installation

Plumbing Reducer Bushing

This brass hex bushing reduces a 1 in male NPT connection to a 3/4 in female NPT connection. It is rated for Class 125 service with a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi. The straight-threaded design suits water, air, or inert gas lines in residential and light commercial plumbing.

Replaces Worn Or Mismatched Fittings

Use this fitting when an existing 1 in male thread must accept 3/4 in pipe or components without replacing the larger upstream hardware. The jump is worth it during repairs, fixture upgrades, or manifold revisions where the larger port is fixed and the downstream size must change. Red brass construction resists dezincification better than standard yellow brass in potable water systems.

Suits Installers Needing A Single Size Step-Down

This bushing serves plumbers and maintenance technicians who need a direct 1 in to 3/4 in reduction in a compact hex body. It is not for applications requiring a larger reduction ratio, a female-to-female coupling, or a union connection for frequent disassembly. The Proposition 65 notice indicates the alloy contains listed chemicals, so buyers needing certified lead-free components for drinking water should verify compliance separately.

Questions about this item

What pipe threads does the 1 in male NPT by 3/4 in female NPT hex bushing connect?

It joins a 1 in male NPT thread to a 3/4 in female NPT thread, both straight-threaded, for a direct reduction in brass piping.

Which wrench size fits the hex flats during installation, and what sealant step is often missed?

Use a wrench on the integral hex flats; the step many miss is applying PTFE tape or pipe dope to the male threads before tightening to prevent leaks.

When should the brass hex bushing be inspected or replaced in a 200 psi system?

Inspect annually for dezincification, cracking or thread wear; replace if corrosion appears or if the 200 psi rating is exceeded during service.
