1 X 1/2 FTG X COP BUSHING

1" x 1/2" FTG x COP Bushing (Copper Reducing Bushing)

This is a copper reducing bushing used in plumbing to connect two different pipe sizes in a straight run.

What it is

A sweat (solder) reducer bushing with two different connection ends:

• 1" FTG (female socket end) — fits over 1" copper tubing or fitting
• 1/2" COP (copper tube end) — fits into 1/2" copper tubing connection

What it does

• Reduces pipe size from 1 inch down to 1/2 inch
• Allows a direct inline transition between different copper pipe sizes
• Creates a permanent soldered joint once installed

Key features

• Material: copper (plumbing-grade)
• Connection type: sweat/solder (no threads)
• Type: reducing bushing (compact size reducer)
• Designed for tight spaces where couplings may not fit

Common applications

• Residential water supply lines
• Commercial plumbing systems
• HVAC and hydronic piping
• Retrofit or repair work requiring size reduction

If you want, I can also help you compare this vs a 1" x 1/2" reducing coupling so you know when each one is used.
