Anvil International Inc 8700163507 Galvanized Union 1 in

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700163507 is a 1-inch galvanized union rated at 150 LB, designed for threaded pipe assemblies in water and gas distribution systems. Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance in exposed or moderately corrosive environments. The union allows sections of threaded pipe to be connected and disconnected without rotating the pipe itself, making it a standard fitting in maintenance-heavy mechanical systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during new construction and retrofit work across residential and light commercial applications.

This union is suited for 1-inch threaded pipe runs in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and industrial process piping where a removable connection point is required. The 150 LB pressure class rating makes it appropriate for standard-service water and gas distribution lines. It ships in a package quantity of 15 units per carton, making it practical for stocking on service vans or supply rooms handling multiple jobs.

• 1-inch nominal pipe size with standard threaded ends for NPT connections
• 150 LB pressure class rating for standard-service piping applications
• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in exposed environments

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any union fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male NPT threads prior to assembly. Do not overtighten the union nut, as this can distort the seat and cause leaks.
