Compact Threaded Size Reduction
A hex bushing threads into a compatible larger female-threaded connection and provides a smaller female-threaded opening for the mating component. This allows a pipe-size reduction without requiring a separate reducing coupling or additional nipple.
Hex Wrenching Surface
The external hex-shaped section provides wrenching flats to assist with installation and removal of the bushing from a compatible threaded fitting, valve, or equipment connection.
Common Applications
