Anderson Metals 756232-06 Brass Npt Union 3/8 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 756232-06 is a lead-free brass pipe union designed for threaded piping systems requiring a reliable, re-separable joint. Rated to 1000 psi, this flanged union uses NPT threading on both ends and is constructed from brass throughout. The flanged connection style allows the joint to be broken and reassembled without disturbing the rest of the piping run. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting during new construction and service work on potable water, fuel gas, and related fluid systems.

This union is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and gas piping applications. The 3/8 inch size fits into standard small-bore supply lines and branch runs. Approved materials and lead-free construction make it appropriate for potable water service in jurisdictions following current safe drinking water standards. It is also listed for use with grease, fuels, LP gas, and natural gas, making it a versatile fitting for multi-trade environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with the applicable edition of the IPC or IFGC. Shut off the water supply or gas service and relieve system pressure fully before disassembling existing piping. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten; use a backup wrench on the adjacent fitting body to avoid stressing upstream joints.
