Anvil International Inc 8700163457 Galvanized Union

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700163457 is a 3/4-inch galvanized union rated at 150 lb, used in threaded pipe assemblies for water, gas, and general plumbing systems. This union allows two sections of pipe to be connected or disconnected without rotating either pipe, making it practical for maintenance and retrofit work. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for exposed or semi-exposed installations. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial piping runs where a serviceable joint is required.

This union is suited for residential and commercial plumbing applications including water supply lines, low-pressure gas distribution, and general fluid conveyance systems. The 3/4-inch size handles standard pipe runs in both new construction and replacement scenarios. It is sold in packages of 30 units, making it a practical stocking item for contractors and supply houses managing ongoing job site demand.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the supply line before disassembling or installing any union fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly.
