Brass M/F reducing bushing, screw-in, used to reduce the diameter of a connection by going from a male thread to a smaller female thread. A compact, discreet part, ideal for tight spaces. ISO 228-1 BSPP standard.
Description of the Brass M/F Reducing Bushing
This M/F reducing bushing screws into a larger female fitting and provides a smaller-diameter female outlet. It is the simplest and most compact way to adapt a piece of equipment to a network of a different diameter.
Its short profile makes it almost invisible in the assembly, unlike a longer reducing coupling. Solder-free assembly. Available in a very wide choice of diameter combinations to cover every plumbing and décor configuration.

Applications and Installation Tips
Uses
- Domestic plumbing: connecting hot and cold water systems
- Industrial plumbing: PN 16 bar compliant installations
- Interior décor: making light fixtures, shelves and towel rails in exposed brass
- DIY and creative projects: custom projects with screw-in fittings
Installation tips
- Use PTFE tape (Teflon) or hemp to ensure sealing on male threads
- For flat gasket seats, use a flat gasket with a minimum thickness of 1 mm
- Tighten with an open-end spanner or an adjustable spanner — do not use slip-joint pliers, to avoid marking the part
- Apply a moderate tightening torque — overtightening can damage the thread
