Default 1/2" socket to 1/8" threaded FPT?

Is there such a thing as a 1/2" socket to 1/8" threaded female adaptor?

I am installing some misting nozzles and I can get 1/2" PVC tees with a 1/8"
thread but have to order online. The misting nozzles are all 1/8" male
threads.

It would be a lot easier if I can get 1/2" socket to 1/8" threaded adaptors
so I can use the normal 1/2" tees.

It's called a 1/2 to 1/8 bushing-widely available.

Not sure what a "socket" is, but if the OP means going from 1/2 female
to 1/8 female, then yes a bushing is what is needed. If you can't
find one that goes direct, you can also use two to make the reduction.
