Anvil International Inc 8700163051 Black Union 1 Inch

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700163051 is a 1-inch black malleable iron union rated for 150 PSI service. Unions allow piping systems to be disconnected and reconnected without cutting or threading existing pipe, making them essential for service access points, equipment connections, and repairs. This fitting is finished in black and is suited for gas, air, and low-pressure steam applications in residential and light commercial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting as part of threaded black iron piping assemblies.

This union is used in threaded black iron piping systems where a break-apart connection is required for maintenance access or equipment isolation. Typical applications include gas supply lines to furnaces, boilers, unit heaters, and similar equipment, as well as compressed air distribution and low-pressure steam piping. The 150 PSI pressure rating makes it appropriate for standard service pressures found in residential and light commercial mechanical systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) as appropriate to the service. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any union fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all threaded connections. Do not overtighten union nuts, as this can distort the seats and cause leaks.
