Brassworks 6JC125110701022 Lead-Free Brass Hex Bushing, 3/4 In. MPT X 3/8 In. FPT
Description
A brass hex bushing is a plumbing fitting that connects two pipes of different sizes, reducing the connection from 3/4-inch male pipe thread (MPT) to 3/8-inch female pipe thread (FPT). This lead-free brass bushing is suitable for use with brass or steel pipe in low to medium pressure applications. The one-piece construction provides a solid fitting option for plumbing repairs and installations.
The hex-shaped body makes the bushing easier to grip and turn during installation, allowing you to work more efficiently in tight spaces. This fitting is suitable for projects ranging from simple repairs to more complex piping layouts where size reduction is needed.
