Anvil International Inc 8700158804 Merchant Coupling

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700158804 is a 1-1/4-inch galvanized merchant coupling designed for steel pipe systems in plumbing and mechanical piping installations. This fitting is threaded end to end, allowing a secure connection between two lengths of pipe on a single continuous run. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or exposed environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and repair work where a full-length coupling is required.

Galvanized merchant couplings are commonly used in residential and commercial water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping systems. The end-to-end threading allows installers to make up connections without a center stop, making them suitable for running thread applications. This coupling is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, supporting both stocking and job-lot purchasing for contractors.

Key Features

• End-to-end threaded design with no center stop for running thread applications
• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and exposed service
• 1-1/4-inch nominal pipe size
• Sold in packages of 25 units for contractor convenience

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1-1/4-inch threaded steel pipe systems in plumbing and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements. Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the line before making up or breaking apart threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Use proper pipe wrenches and avoid over-tightening, which can damage threads or split the fitting.
