Anvil International Inc 8700163358 Galvanized Union

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700163358 is a 3/8-inch Class 150 galvanized union designed for joining and disconnecting threaded pipe sections in low-to-moderate pressure piping systems. Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and exposed environments. This union allows a pipe run to be broken and rejoined without disturbing the surrounding piping, making it a standard fitting for maintenance-accessible installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in water supply, general service, and mechanical piping applications where a threaded disconnect point is required.

This union is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems where 3/8-inch threaded connections are specified. It is appropriate for water supply lines, low-pressure gas piping where code permits galvanized fittings, and general mechanical service piping. The Class 150 pressure rating aligns with standard threaded fitting systems used throughout the trade. It is sold in a package quantity of 40, making it practical for contractors stocking fittings for multiple jobs or service trucks.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable plumbing and mechanical codes such as the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before cutting into any existing line. Use pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service media on all threaded connections. Do not overtighten the union nut, as doing so can distort the seat and cause leaks.
