Brass Reducing Adapter 3/8 x 1/8

This brass reducing adapter connects a 3/8 inch female NPTF thread to a 1/8 inch male NPTF thread. It is rated for Class 150 service in plumbing and bathware installations. The fitting suits installers who need a durable transition between different pipe sizes. It arrives new and ready for standard threaded assembly.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive brass fitting, the adapter generates no heat, produces no noise and draws no power during normal operation. Performance depends entirely on the surrounding piping system and fluid conditions. No active cooling or electrical supply is required for this component.

Class 150 pressure rating

The Class 150 rating defines the maximum working pressure for which this adapter is designed. Installers must verify that system pressure stays within this limit to ensure a safe seal. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Buyers needing a higher pressure class should select a differently rated fitting.

Questions about this item

How do I install this brass reducing adapter without causing leaks?

Apply PTFE tape or pipe thread sealant to the male NPTF threads, thread the 1/8 in male end into the female port first, then tighten the 3/8 in female end onto the mating pipe using a wrench on the hex flats; over-tightening the female side before the male side is seated often distorts the threads.

What maintenance will this adapter need over time?

Brass resists corrosion in potable water, but in hard-water systems mineral scale can build on the threads; inspect annually and, if seepage appears, remove the adapter, clean the threads with a wire brush, reapply sealant and reinstall.

What pressure limit applies during continuous operation?

The Class 150 rating means the adapter is designed for a maximum working pressure of 150 psi at ambient temperature; sustained pressure above that level will cause permanent deformation of the brass body.
