Anderson Metals Corp 750068-1412 Brass Cmp X Mpt Adapter

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 750068-1412 is a brass compression-to-male-pipe-thread adapter designed to connect 7/8-inch compression tubing to a 3/4-inch male pipe thread fitting. This type of adapter is a standard transition fitting used in plumbing, HVAC, and gas distribution piping where copper or soft tubing meets a threaded port on a valve, appliance, or manifold. The fitting is lead-free compliant and meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for potable water applications. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this fitting during new construction and service work where a secure, leak-free compression-to-threaded transition is required.

This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC installations. Typical applications include connecting copper supply lines to threaded shut-off valves, water heater connections, and gas appliance supply lines where a compression-to-MPT transition is needed. The 7/8-inch compression end accepts standard soft copper or flexible tubing, while the 3/4-inch MPT end threads directly into female-threaded ports. Sold in bulk packaging with a package quantity of 5 units per pack.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure completely before installing or removing any compression fitting. Ensure the compression nut and ferrule are properly seated and hand-tightened before applying wrench torque to avoid cross-threading or ferrule damage. Do not overtighten the MPT end into the receiving fitting — use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on the male threads per local code requirements.
