Anderson Metals 750082-0402 Compression Tube Union

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 750082-0402 is a lead free brass compression tube union designed to join two lengths of tubing in a straight-run connection using compression fittings on both ends. The union provides a leak-resistant seal without soldering, making it suitable for potable water, hydronic, and light-duty gas or refrigerant lines where a mechanical compression connection is permitted. Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure, this fitting is constructed from lead free brass to meet current plumbing code requirements for drinking water service. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of union during new construction and retrofit work alike.

This compression tube union is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where two sections of tubing must be connected or where a union connection is needed for future serviceability. Typical applications include supply line runs, fixture connections, and in-line repairs. The compression x compression end configuration allows installation without heat, flux, or specialized tooling beyond a wrench and tube cutter.

Key Features

• Lead free brass construction meets potable water plumbing code requirements
• Compression x compression end connections on both sides — no soldering required
• Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure
• Union configuration allows the joint to be disconnected and reassembled for future service access
• Compact form factor suited for tight spaces in residential and light commercial installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation compression union for residential and light commercial plumbing systems using standard compression-compatible tubing.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with the applicable International Plumbing Code (IPC) or local authority having jurisdiction. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. Ensure tubing ends are cut cleanly and squarely with a tube cutter and are free of burrs before seating the compression ferrule. Do not overtighten the compression nut — hand-tight plus a measured fraction of a turn per fitting instructions is sufficient to achieve a leak-free seal.
