Sioux Chief 933-15201001 Nylon Hex Bushing, 1/2" MIP x 1/4" FIP

The Sioux Chief 933-15201001 Nylon Hex Bushing is a reducing bushing that steps a 1/2" MIP (male iron pipe) connection down to a 1/4" FIP (female iron pipe) connection for behind-the-wall and rough-in plumbing runs. Molded from nylon, this hex-head bushing threads directly into a larger fitting to adapt a smaller-diameter branch line, drain component, or accessory port without swapping out the entire fitting body. Because the reduction happens in a single fitting, installers can move from a 1/2" threaded opening to a 1/4" threaded takeoff with one part instead of stacking multiple adapters. It ships packaged 60 EA per case, making it practical to stock on a service truck or supply house shelf for recurring rough-in and repair work.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 1/2" MIP x 1/4" FIP reducing connection for stepping down from a larger threaded fitting to a smaller threaded takeoff.
  • Nylon Construction: Molded nylon body resists corrosion and is lighter than a comparable metal reducing bushing, which helps when handling multiple pieces on a job.
  • Hex Head Design: Hex-shaped body accepts a wrench or pliers for a secure, controlled connection during make-up instead of relying on a smooth surface for grip.
  • Threaded Connection: MIP x FIP iron-pipe threading allows direct assembly into standard threaded fittings without sourcing an additional adapter.
  • Reducing Bushing Configuration: Single-piece design combines the size reduction and the thread-gender change (male to female) in one component.
  • Packaging: Supplied 60 EA per case for efficient stocking and distribution across rough-in jobs and service calls.

Sioux Chief 933-15201001 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Sioux Chief 933-15201001 bushing adapt from and to?
It steps a 1/2 inch male iron pipe thread down to a 1/4 inch female iron pipe thread. The male end threads into an existing 1/2 inch threaded fitting, and the 1/4 inch female port takes the smaller branch, drain component, or accessory nipple. One part handles both the size reduction and the male-to-female change, so you aren't stacking a bushing and an adapter.
2) Will a nylon hex bushing hold up in a behind-the-wall rough-in, or should I use brass?
The 933-15201001 body is molded nylon, which resists corrosion and weighs less than a metal reducing bushing. It's intended for rough-in and repair work on threaded runs, residential and commercial. Nylon has no give for over-torquing, so make it up by wrench on the hex flats and stop at snug plus a turn rather than muscling it. If your job spec calls out metallic fittings specifically, go to a brass reducing bushing instead.
3) Can I use this bushing to pick up a 1/4 inch gauge or accessory port off a 1/2 inch fitting?
That is exactly the use. Thread the male 1/2 inch end into the larger fitting and the 1/4 inch female port accepts a small-diameter takeoff such as an accessory or drain component nipple. The hex head gives you a wrench or plier grip to pull it up tight instead of fighting a round body.
4) How many pieces come in a case of Sioux Chief 933-15201001?
Packaged 60 each per case. That quantity is aimed at truck stock and counter inventory, since a 1/2 to 1/4 inch reducing bushing is a recurring item on service calls and rough-in jobs rather than something you buy one of.
5) What is the Sioux Chief part number and model for this 1/2 to 1/4 inch nylon hex bushing?
Order it as Sioux Chief 933-15201001. That single model covers the 1/2 inch MIP by 1/4 inch FIP nylon hex bushing; there are no finish or size options to specify.
