Threaded reducer coupling for joining two different pipe sizes in potable water, hydronic, and outdoor wet-location plumbing. Female NPT threads on both ends step a 1/2" pipe down to 3/8" without an additional bushing.

• Material: galvanized steel (carbon steel)
• Connection: Female NPT (FIP) on both ends
• Reduces 1/2" to 3/8"
• Hot-dip galvanized zinc coating resists corrosion in wet service
• Compatible with Schedule 40 steel pipe and standard threaded fittings

Tip: Apply pipe thread sealant (PTFE tape or pipe dope) to the male threads of mating pipe before assembly. Not approved for natural gas distribution -- zinc flakes can clog regulators and orifices.
