A.y. Mcdonald 5182-107 Brass Cts Compression Mpt Adapter 1.5 in

Product Description

The A.Y. McDonald 5182-107 is a no lead brass CTS compression x MPT adapter designed for use in potable water systems. This fitting connects copper tube size (CTS) compression tubing to a male pipe thread (MPT) connection, providing a reliable, leak-resistant joint without the need for soldering. Constructed from no lead brass in compliance with safe drinking water standards, this adapter is suited for licensed plumbers working on residential and light commercial water supply lines where lead-free materials are required.

This adapter is used in plumbing applications where CTS tubing must transition to a threaded pipe connection. Common install scenarios include water service lines, fixture supply runs, and distribution piping where a compression-to-threaded transition is needed. The 1-1/2 inch fitting size makes it appropriate for main supply and branch distribution lines in residential and light commercial settings.

Key Features

• No lead brass construction meets safe drinking water act requirements for potable water use
• CTS compression inlet allows tool-minimal connection to copper tubing without soldering
• MPT outlet threads to standard male pipe thread fittings and valves
• 1-1/2 inch fitting size suitable for main and branch water supply lines
• Brass body provides corrosion resistance in water service environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 1-1/2 inch CTS compression to MPT plumbing transitions in potable water systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line before beginning work. Ensure the copper tubing end is cut cleanly and deburred before seating it into the compression fitting. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
