Reducer Coupling 1/2" x 1/4" FNPT
This malleable iron reducing coupling connects a 1/2 inch female NPT pipe to a 1/4 inch female NPT pipe. It is rated for Class 150 service and suits general plumbing installations. The fitting is supplied new and ready for immediate use.
Capacity and Pressure Rating
The Class 150 designation indicates the pressure rating appropriate for standard water, oil, or gas lines at ambient temperatures. It comfortably handles typical residential and light commercial distribution pressures. The fitting is not intended for high-pressure hydraulic systems or steam service beyond the class limit.
Malleable Iron Construction
The malleable iron body provides mechanical strength and ductility for threading and installation torque. It resists cracking under mechanical stress better than cast iron alternatives. This material choice determines suitability for the intended piping system.

Questions about this item
Will the 1/2" FNPT end thread onto my existing 1/2" male pipe without leaking?
Yes, the 1/2" female NPT end follows standard taper threads and mates with any 1/2" male NPT pipe when sealed with tape or compound.
How can I confirm the Class 150 pressure rating is holding after installation?
Pressurise the system to its working pressure and inspect the 1/2" x 1/4" joint; no seepage means the malleable iron coupling is performing to its Class 150 rating.
Does the box include thread sealant or do I need to buy tape separately?
Only the Zoro Select 5P562 reducer coupling is supplied; pipe thread tape or paste must be purchased separately.
