Title: 1 1/4” pex to 1” mpt
Post by: mlappin on November 21, 2017, 02:31:33 PM
This has come up before (I think) is such a thing as a 1 1/4” pex to 1” mpt adapter available? If so from whom?

I got some from Z supply one time. Badger has 1 1/4" to 1 1/4".

Yah, 1 1/4 to 1 1/4 is easy, was looking for 1 1/4 to 1” to avoid a bushing or adapter.

Z-Supply is where I get them.
They also have the long radius 1" pex elbows.

Just checked again, they have 1 1/4” to 1 1/4 MPT, they don’t have 1 1/4” crimp to 1” MPT.

They just don't have them listed. They are the same price as the 1-1/4 x 1-1/4

I asked this question on the FB page about 2 months ago. I ordered crimp by crimp reducers from Zoro at $9.xx apiece and received 1-1/4 x 1 MPT adapters so they do carry them. I ended up liking them and ordered 12 more as well as some crimp by crimp and got both the second time. Found out in the meantime that St Hilaire Supply here in MN carries them as well at around the same price. I still have 4 of each left so I haven't reordered but they would ship to you also.

Just noticed, Supplyhouse.com has a nice variety of 1 1/4, 1 1/2" & 2" Pex crimp fittings. That must have just changed.

I just noticed that last night as well! Only crimp by crimp though unfortunately. At least those are half the price of the same fittings anywhere else!

I just looked, they have male threaded adapters, sweat adapters... what did you mean?

What I can see on their site, they don't offer 1-1/4" crimp by 1" MPT fittings, which I believe is what Marty is looking for. Crimp by crimp reducers or 1-1/4" male adapters, sure, but not reducing adapters

Oh you're right. I forgot.

Seeing as they have the crimp by crimp reducers at that price though, I wonder if it wouldn't be worth a phone call to request they start carrying the MPT reducers? I'd certainly buy a bunch
