Anderson Metals Corp 710066-0604 3/8 Cmp X 1/4 Fip Adapter

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 710066-0604 is a compression-to-female iron pipe adapter designed to transition a 3/8-inch compression line to a 1/4-inch female iron pipe (FIP) threaded connection. This fitting is a standard plumbing adapter used to connect tubing supply lines to threaded pipe fittings or valves. It meets the lead-free requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it compliant for use in potable water systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during supply line rough-in and fixture connection work. Each package contains 10 units.

This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a compression supply line must terminate into a female iron pipe threaded port. Typical install scenarios include connecting flexible or rigid supply tubing to shutoff valves, angle stops, or other FIP-threaded fittings. The 3/8-inch compression inlet accepts standard compression tubing, while the 1/4-inch FIP outlet threads onto standard pipe fittings. It arrives carded and is sold in a package of 10.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before fitting removal or installation. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the tubing, then snug with a wrench — do not overtighten, as this can crack the compression seat. Verify no leaks under pressure before returning the system to service.
