Anderson Metals Corp 757486-121208 Brass Garden Hose Adapter

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 757486-121208 is a lead-free brass adapter designed to connect two 3/4 inch male garden hose (MGH) threaded fittings while also providing a tapped 1/2 inch female iron pipe (FIP) port. Built from brass, it meets lead-free requirements under Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for potable water applications. This fitting is used by plumbers and irrigation professionals to create a tee-style connection in garden hose systems where an additional pipe thread branch is needed. The dual MGH ends thread onto standard garden hose fittings, and the integrated 1/2 inch FIP tap allows a threaded pipe or valve to be added inline.

This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and irrigation applications where a garden hose line must be branched or extended with an iron pipe connection. It is commonly installed at hose bibs, irrigation manifolds, or utility connections where both hose-thread and pipe-thread interfaces are required. The lead-free brass construction makes it compliant for use in systems carrying drinking water. It is sold in bulk packaging with a package quantity of 5 units per pack.

Installation Notes

Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to all threaded connections as appropriate per local plumbing codes. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as excessive torque can crack the fitting body.
