Hexagonal bronze pipe bushing with threaded ends

Legend Valve

Legend Valve 310-522NL no-lead hex bushing 1-1/2" x 3/8

SKU CH-G52P-1BWR7

No-lead cast bronze hex bushing reduces 1-1/2" male NPT to 3/8" female NPT for potable water lines

  • No-lead cast bronze construction meets California Proposition 65 compliance
  • 1-1/2" x 3/8" threaded hex bushing reduces pipe diameter efficiently
  • MNPT to FNPT connection fits standard plumbing installations
  • Durable cast bronze material resists corrosion in water systems
  • New condition ensures reliable performance from first use

Threaded no-lead hex bushing

This 1-1/2" x 3/8" cast bronze hex bushing connects male and female NPT threads in plumbing systems. Its no-lead construction meets requirements for potable water installations. The hex profile allows standard wrench engagement for secure tightening. It suits residential and commercial pipework where lead-free fittings are mandated.

Sustained pressure and corrosion resistance

Cast bronze withstands continuous water pressure and resists dezincification better than standard brass alloys. The no-lead material maintains integrity under prolonged exposure to treated municipal water without leaching regulated contaminants. Threads remain sealed through thermal cycling and vibration typical of fixed piping.

Replaces leaded bushings in potable systems

This fitting upgrades older leaded bronze or brass bushings when codes require lead-free components for drinking water. The jump is justified during repipes, fixture replacements or inspections that flag non-compliant fittings. It is not suited for gas lines, high-temperature steam or applications requiring stainless steel corrosion resistance.

Questions about this item

Does the 310-522NL bushing generate heat or noise when water runs through it all day?

The cast bronze hex bushing has no moving parts and creates no noise or heat during continuous flow.

What pipe threads must I already have to install this 1-1/2" x 3/8" MNPT/FNPT fitting?

You need a male NPT thread on the 1-1/2" side and a female NPT thread on the 3/8" side for a direct connection.

Will this no-lead bronze bushing corrode faster when joined to older brass or steel plumbing?

The no-lead cast bronze body resists dezincification and pairs safely with existing brass, copper or steel NPT threads.
