Threaded Reducer – Different Sizes and Parts

In plumbing and fitting applications, we are using different kinds of parts and connections. One of these applications is threaded reducer applications. Here you can find different sizes of threaded reducer systems that you can use for different kinds of applications.

Different Sizes of Threaded Reducer Applications

Check these different sizes and applications of them to select the best one for you.

1/2” Female Threaded Reducer

This is our recommendation if you are looking for 1/2″ of BSP female to NSP male connector. It is made from high quality brass material that you can use for different kinds of applications.

• You can easily connect different fitting and plumbing applications.
• It comes with a rubber washer that will prevent leaking.

2pcs 3/4″ NPT Male to 1/4″ NPT Female Adapter

The high-quality brass material makes it very useful and has corrosion-resistant applications. And also, you can find different kinds of connections and sizes if you visit the store.

DAN SPEED 1-1/4″x 1″ Male Hex Nipple Threaded Reducer

If you are looking for a reducer 1-1/4″x 1″ Male, you can use this one. High-quality 304 stainless steel material provides very good structural application. The maximum working temperature is 70 degrees Fahrenheit and the working pressure is 150 ps.

3/8″ NPT Male x 3/8″ G Thread (BSP) Threaded Reducer

You can use this 304 stainless steel threaded reducer for industrial applicaitons without any problem. They are generally very useful for such applications. It is very resistant to corrosion.

Also, the maximum working pressure is 2800 psi which you can use in high-pressure applications.

Applicable up to 800 degrees Celsius temperature that you can use for high pressure and temperature fitting systems.

5 Pieces 1/2″ NPT Male x 3/8″ NPT Threaded Reducer

If you are looking for male-to-female reducers, you can consider this package. It is high-quality brass material that you can use for general fitting applications. The maximum working temperature is 250 degrees Fahrenheit. And also the maximum pressure is 150 psi.

From the same seller, you can find various kinds of female-to-male and male-to-female connections in different sizes. So, application of them will be very easy for different kinds of applications.

NPT 3/4″ to NPT 1/2″ Stainless Steel Reducer

This one is another high-quality stainless steel threaded reducer application that you can find for fitting and plumbing applications. The 304 stainless steel material provides very good corrosion resistance for different kinds of applications.

This one is NPT 3/4″ to NPT 1/2″ female-to-male reducer that will be very useful for mid-range pressure applications. The 290 psi maximum pressure provides very good strength.

Also, you can use them in -100 to 690 degrees Fahrenheit temperature ranges.

1/4 NPT Male to 1/8 NPT Female Threaded Reducer

This is a male-to-female reducer application that we use for different kinds of systems. The high-quality brass material provides very good applicability to normal fitting and plumbing applications.

Also from the same seller, you can find different sizes and types of threaded reducer applications that are available.

Guide to Buy Threaded Reducer Applications

Threaded reducer applications may seem like very basic systems. But when you are buying these systems, you need to make different kinds of considerations.

• Thread Type: This is the first that you need to consider. There are different types of threads are available. They are standard and you need to choose the same thread types. The most common thread type is NPT. But there are threaded reducer applications to make conversions between different thread types.
• Material: Also, there are different materials for threaded reducer applications. The most common materials are 304 steel and brass. We use 304 steel for high strength applicaitons to higher pressure and temperatures. For example, to apply to steam systems, it will be better to use 304 steel. And also if you will use them for ordinary water plumbing applications, you can consider the brass material. They are for lower pressure and temperature applications.
• Male and Female Connections: Which kinds of connections you will use these threaded reducers? Female-to-male or male-to-female connections? Female means the threads are internal and male means the threads are external. So, you need to be sure about which kind of cınenction that you will make.
• Size: Reducers are generally adapters. You can make reducing between SAE sizes such as 1/2″, 3/8″, 1″ so on. So, you can find threaded reducer applications between these sizes.
