ASC Engineered Solutions 311085807 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are both ends of the ASC 1/2 x 1/8 galvanized malleable iron reducer female threaded?
Both ends are FPT, so this is a female-by-female reducing coupling. It takes 1/2 inch male pipe thread on the large end and 1/8 inch male pipe thread on the small end. If you need a male end to thread into a female port, a reducer bushing is the part you want instead, not this fitting.
2) Will this galvanized reducer thread onto standard NPT pipe and nipples?
Yes. The threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, which is the standard NPT pipe thread spec, so it mates with any 1/2 inch and 1/8 inch NPT nipple, pipe or fitting. Use pipe dope or PTFE tape on the taper as usual.
3) Is this reducer approved for fire sprinkler piping?
It carries UL/FM approval, which is what an inspector looks for on fire protection piping. Pressure rating and dimensions follow ASME B16.3 for standard class malleable iron.
4) Can I use a galvanized malleable iron reducer on a domestic water line?
Galvanized malleable iron is a steel-pipe fitting, so it belongs on galvanized steel or black steel threaded systems: water service, air, low pressure steam, sprinkler and general MRO piping. The body is malleable iron to ASTM A-197 with a hot dip galvanized coating to ASTM A-153. Don't thread it directly to copper or brass without a dielectric union, and don't use it on gas unless your local code accepts galvanized.
5) What is the ASC part number for the 1/2 x 1/8 galvanized reducing coupling?
Order it as ASC Engineered Solutions model 311085807. It's a galvanized malleable iron reducer, 1/2 inch to 1/8 inch, weighing 0.15 lbs each.
