ASC Engineered Solutions 311089205 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe sizes does the ASC Engineered Solutions galvanized malleable iron reducer connect?
It steps 2 inch down to 1-1/4 inch, with female pipe threads on both ends. Both openings are FPT, so it threads onto male pipe ends or male-threaded nipples, not onto female fittings.
2) Will this 2 x 1-1/4 reducer thread onto standard NPT pipe?
Yes. The threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, which is the standard NPT pipe thread spec, so it mates with any NPT male pipe end or nipple in those sizes. Use pipe dope or PTFE tape on the taper threads as usual.
3) Is this reducer approved for fire sprinkler piping?
It carries UL/FM approval, so it can be used in fire protection piping where a listed malleable iron fitting is called for. It is a standard (STD) class fitting dimensioned and pressure rated to ASME B16.3.
4) Can I use a galvanized malleable iron reducer on an outdoor or wet line?
The galvanized coating is hot dip per ASTM A-153, which is the spec for zinc coating on iron hardware and is what you want for damp, exterior, or corrosive service. The body itself is malleable iron to ASTM A-197. For potable water, note this is galvanized iron rather than brass or bronze.
5) What is the difference between a reducing coupling like this and a bushing?
This part is a reducing coupling: female threads on both ends, 2 inch on one side and 1-1/4 inch on the other, so it joins two male pipe ends of different sizes. A bushing has male threads outside and female inside and screws into an existing female port. If you are reducing at a tee or valve outlet, you want a bushing; if you are reducing between two runs of threaded pipe, this is the fitting.
6) Does this ASC reducer meet standard dimensional requirements so it drops into an existing spec?
Dimensions and pressure rating both follow ASME B16.3, the standard for threaded malleable iron fittings, in standard (STD) class. That means face to face length and thread engagement match any other B16.3 standard class 2 x 1-1/4 reducing coupling, so it substitutes directly on a drawing calling out B16.3.
