Legend Valve 352-656 Galvanized Hex Bushing

This galvanized hex bushing connects a 6 inch female NPT thread to a 3 inch male NPT thread. It is built for plumbing installations that require a secure transition between dissimilar pipe sizes. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in water supply and general piping systems.

Practical limits of NPT threading

Tapered NPT threads create a seal through thread interference and require appropriate sealant or tape for leak-free joints. Over-tightening can crack the fitting or damage the threads, so installation must follow standard plumbing practice. The hex profile allows torque application with a wrench, but access space around the fitting determines usability.

Capacity and headroom for pipe reduction

This fitting handles the step-down from 6 inch to 3 inch pipe in residential, commercial or industrial piping networks. It runs out when the system demands a different size transition, a different thread standard, or a pressure rating beyond standard galvanized malleable iron specifications. Buyers who need a straight coupling, an elbow, or a reduction to another diameter must select a different fitting.
