Anvil International Inc 8700133104 Malleable Coupling 1/2 in

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700133104 is a 1/2 inch black malleable iron right-hand threaded coupling designed for joining sections of threaded pipe in a wide range of piping systems. Malleable iron construction provides the ductility and strength required for mechanical and plumbing applications where vibration or minor flex may occur. The black finish indicates a standard, non-galvanized iron fitting suited for use with black steel pipe in gas, steam, or water distribution systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This coupling is used in residential and light commercial piping installations where 1/2 inch threaded pipe connections are required. Common applications include natural gas distribution lines, low-pressure steam systems, and general water supply piping where black iron pipe is the specified material. The right-hand thread pattern is the standard configuration for most domestic pipe systems. This fitting ships in a package quantity of 20 units.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code where required. Shut off the gas supply or isolate the water or steam system before making any connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all threaded joints prior to assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a secure, leak-free connection without over-stressing the fitting.
