Anderson Metals Corp 710062-06 Compression Union 3/8 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 710062-06 is a 3/8-inch compression x 3/8-inch compression union designed to join two sections of tubing in a straight-line configuration without soldering or special tools. This fitting creates a secure, leak-resistant connection using standard compression ferrules and nuts. It is lead free compliant and meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for use in potable water systems where lead-free materials are mandated. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial water supply lines will find this union straightforward to install in tight spaces where a union-style disconnect point is needed.

This compression union is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications involving 3/8-inch tubing runs. Common install scenarios include under-sink supply lines, fixture shutoff connections, and branch line repairs where a solderless fitting is preferred or required. The fitting is sold in a package of 10 units, making it practical for service vans and jobsite stock. It is carded for retail display but equally suited to wholesale supply channels.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and deburred before seating the ferrule to prevent leaks. Verify that the finished installation complies with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements for potable water fittings.
