Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly, and tighten to hand-tight plus the number of turns specified by local code or fitting manufacturer guidance — do not overtighten brass fittings as this may cause cracking. Inspect for leaks after restoring water pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rough Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Free Compliant\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes — meets Public Law 111-380\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANDERSON METALS CORP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 738119-0806\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANDERSON METALS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51564056838450,"sku":"738119-0806","price":43.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4c4de1098104562358c3e4c9b9ab9f72_e2221774-b39e-453d-a1ac-959a2c49958c.jpg?v=1786509705","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anderson-metals-corp-738119-0806-brass-reducing-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
