Value Brand 2 in x 3/4 in 316 Stainless Steel Hex Reducing Bushing coupling
Hex reducing bushing connects 2" male NPT to 3/4" female NPT using 316 stainless steel rated to Class 3000
- 316 stainless steel resists corrosion in harsh environments
- Class 3000 rating handles high-pressure systems per ASME B16.11
- 2-inch male to 3/4-inch female NPT adapts dissimilar pipe sizes
- Hex flats allow secure wrench tightening without rounding
- Threads meet ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 for reliable sealing
ZORO SELECT 2" x 3/4" Hex Reducing Bushing
This ZORO SELECT hex reducing bushing adapts a 2-inch female NPT opening to a 3/4-inch male NPT connection. It is made from 316 stainless steel conforming to ASTM A182 and rated for Class 3000 service per ASME B16.11. The fitting suits plumbing or industrial systems needing a durable, corrosion-resistant reduction between dissimilar pipe sizes.
Verify Thread Compatibility and Sealant Needs
Confirm that the existing 2-inch port uses male NPT threads at 11 1/2 TPI and the mating component uses female NPT threads at 14 TPI per ANSI/ASME B1.20.1. No thread sealant is pre-applied and no sealing components are included, so appropriate sealant or tape must be sourced separately before installation.
Sustained Pressure and Temperature Performance
The Class 3000 rating under ASME B16.11 defines the pressure-temperature envelope for continuous operation within applicable standards. The 316 stainless steel construction maintains structural integrity and corrosion resistance under prolonged load, while the hex profile allows secure wrench tightening to prevent leakage during extended service.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and do I need to buy thread sealant separately?
The package contains the 316 stainless steel hex reducing bushing only. No thread sealant or sealing components are included, so you will need to supply PTFE tape or pipe dope appropriate for the application.
How do I decide between the 2-inch male NPT at 11 TPI and the 3/4-inch female NPT at 14 TPI when selecting this fitting?
This is a single reducing bushing with both ends built in — the 2-inch male end threads into a larger female opening and the 3/4-inch female end accepts a smaller male pipe or fitting. Choose it when you need to step down from a 2-inch female port to a 3/4-inch male connection.
What does the Class 3000 pressure rating mean once the bushing is installed in a piping system?
Class 3000 per ASME B16.11 indicates the fitting is rated for 3000 psi working pressure at ambient temperature when assembled correctly with compatible schedule pipe and proper thread engagement. Actual allowable pressure depends on the piping material, temperature and applicable code.
