Technical Features
- Malleable iron construction: Provides the structural integrity needed to withstand high-pressure and high-temperature piping systems without cracking or deforming under stress.
- 300 PSI pressure rating: Supports demanding residential and light commercial pipe systems where sustained pressure performance is required.
- Wide operating temperature range (-4 to 572°F): Suitable for both cold-weather outdoor installations and high-temperature steam or hot fluid distribution lines.
- Schedule 40 rating: Confirms wall thickness compatibility with standard SCH 40 pipe systems, ensuring a secure, code-compliant fit.
- MIP x FIP threaded connection: Enables a straight-thread reduction from 1/2 in male pipe to 3/8 in female pipe without additional adapters.
- Hex drive design (0.87 in hex): Allows standard wrench engagement for controlled tightening and leak-free installation.
- Compact 0.75 in length: Minimizes installation footprint in tight spaces where clearance is limited.
- Black finish: Consistent with standard black iron pipe system aesthetics used in gas and industrial piping applications.
Applications
- Reducing pipe diameter within black iron pipe assemblies in residential and commercial plumbing systems.
- Gas distribution lines where black malleable iron fittings are specified.
- Industrial piping systems operating within the -4 to 572°F temperature range.
- Any SCH 40 threaded pipe installation requiring a 1/2 in to 3/8 in MIP-to-FIP reduction.
