1-1/2" MNPT x 1" FNPT Reducer Bushing (304 Stainless Steel)
The 1-1/2" MNPT x 1" FNPT Reducer Bushing is a cast, heavy-duty pipe fitting designed to reduce the size of a female threaded port from 1−1/2" to 1" NPT. This is a common requirement in manifold and assembly plumbing where a main large line must feed smaller branches, such as in the Detergent POD Hot Water Supply Sub Assembly (P-WAT-2890-A).
Key Construction and Performance:
- Material & Grade: Manufactured from corrosion-resistant 304 Grade Stainless Steel and rated as 150 lb. Class. This ensures the bushing will withstand the harsh, wet, and chemical-heavy environment of the car wash without rusting.
- Reduction Function: The bushing threads into a 1−1/2" Female NPT port and provides a 1" Female NPT connection for the next pipe segment, simplifying the plumbing layout.
- Hex Design: The hex shape allows for easy installation and removal using a standard wrench.
- Product Type: Reducer Bushing / Threaded Hex Bushing
- Application: Reducing pipe size in manifold assemblies (e.g., Detergent POD Hot Water Supply)
- End 1 Connection (Outer): 1−1/2" Male NPT (MNPT)
- End 2 Connection (Inner): 1" Female NPT (FNPT)
