2-1/2" x 2" 316 SS Hex Bushing

This stainless-steel hex bushing reduces a 2-1/2 inch male NPT thread to a 2 inch female NPT thread. It is rated for Class 150 service and Schedule 40 pipe with a 300 psi maximum operating pressure. The 316 alloy provides corrosion resistance for water, oil and many chemical lines.

Replacing worn or mismatched threaded fittings

Use this bushing when a 2-1/2 inch male pipe end must connect to a 2 inch female port without changing the pipe itself. The jump is worth it when the existing line is sound but the thread size differs, avoiding a full re-pipe of Schedule 40 stainless.

Fits Schedule 40 stainless systems at Class 150

The hex body allows standard wrench engagement for installation in tight pipe runs. It joins male and female NPT threads directly, freeing the builder from sourcing a separate nipple and coupling. Verify that 300 psi covers the system design pressure before fitting.

It connects a 2-1/2 inch male NPT thread to a 2 inch female NPT thread.

Which tool engages the hex on this 316 stainless steel bushing during installation, and what mistake damages the threads?

Use a wrench on the hex flats; over-tightening past hand-tight plus one to two turns strips the tapered NPT threads.

Inspect annually for corrosion, cracking or leakage; replace immediately if threads deform or the hex rounds off.
