Product detailed description
Inverted reduction 1"-1/2" brass
- external / internal MF thread
- max. pressure up to 1.5 MP
- max. temperature up to 110°C
Brass threaded reducing fitting – connects a pipe or fitting with a different thread size into a single joint. Brass is a long-proven, standard material for threaded water and heating pipework thanks to its corrosion resistance and reliable tightness when the joint is correctly tightened.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I choose the correct fitting size? The thread size (e.g. 1/2", 3/4", 1") must exactly match the thread size on the pipe or fitting you are connecting to – designations such as FF (female-female), MF (male-female) and similar abbreviations in the name indicate the thread type on each side of the fitting.
- What do the abbreviations FF and MF mean? F (female, internal thread) and M (male, external thread) indicate the thread type on that side of the fitting – for example, "FF" means an internal thread on both sides, while "MF" means external on one side and internal on the other.
- Is sealing material needed during installation? Yes, sealing material (e.g. Teflon tape or hemp fibre with sealing paste) is normally used on threaded joints to ensure a perfectly tight connection – a bare thread without sealant will not reliably seal.
- Does the installation have to be done by a professional? A simple threaded connection can be handled by a competent DIYer with basic skills, but when working on an already functioning system (especially gas or pressurised water/heating systems) we recommend calling in a plumber, who can also verify the tightness of the joint after installation.
- What material and pressure class does this fitting have? It is made of brass, suitable for standard water and heating pipework – exact nominal pressure and temperature values (where stated for the specific product) can be found in the technical parameters above.

Hi there, I'm trying to connect a 1-inch pipe to a smaller 1/2-inch one for our heating system. Does this brass fitting handle the pressure and heat well, and do I need to use Teflon tape or something similar to make sure it doesn't leak?

Hey Mark! This brass reducer is totally fine for your heating setup since it handles up to 1.5 MPa pressure and temperatures of 110°C. You definitely should use sealing material like Teflon tape on the threads to ensure a tight connection, as bare threads won't seal properly. It's a standard piece that works great with other threaded fittings in the same category.
