Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 710066-0606 is a 3/8-inch compression by 3/8-inch female iron pipe (FIP) adapter designed to transition between compression tubing connections and standard female iron pipe threaded fittings. This fitting 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. It ships carded in a package quantity of 10 units. Plumbers and pipefitters install this adapter in residential and light commercial water supply applications where a compression line must connect to a threaded pipe fitting.

This adapter is used in residential and light commercial plumbing installations where 3/8-inch compression tubing — such as supply lines for faucets, toilets, or angle stops — must terminate at a 3/8-inch female iron pipe threaded port. It is appropriate for potable water supply lines and similar low-pressure plumbing assemblies. The lead-free construction meets current code requirements for drinking water applications in jurisdictions that enforce Public Law 111-380 compliance.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before making or breaking any compression or threaded connections. Use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on the iron pipe threads per local plumbing code. Compression fittings should be tightened to a snug fit without over-torquing to avoid cracking the compression seat.
