Apollo Powerpress 7482112 Gas Press Adapter 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The APOLLO POWERPRESS 7482112 is a 1-1/4 inch carbon steel press-to-male NPT adapter engineered for fuel gas distribution piping systems. Part of the 404G press-connect fitting family, it transitions a press-end connection to a male NPT thread, allowing integration with threaded components in gas piping assemblies. The fitting is manufactured from ASTM A105 carbon steel and carries a corrosion-resistant zinc-nickel coating. An HNBR sealing element is built into the press end to maintain a high-integrity, leak-free joint. The adapter is certified to ANSI LC 4 standards, making it appropriate for licensed gas piping work in residential and commercial fuel gas systems. Installation requires approved press jaws compatible with carbon steel press systems.

This adapter is used in fuel gas distribution piping where a transition from a press-connect system to a male NPT threaded connection is required. It is suited for non-potable fuel gas applications in both residential and light commercial settings. Typical installation scenarios include connecting press-system runs to threaded valves, meters, appliance connections, or other threaded fittings within the gas distribution assembly. The press end accepts standard industry press tools with approved carbon steel jaws, streamlining installation without open flame or solder.

Key Features

• ASTM A105 carbon steel construction for durability in fuel gas service
• Zinc-nickel coating provides corrosion resistance in installed environments
• HNBR sealing element rated for fuel gas compatibility
• ANSI LC 4 certified for use in fuel gas distribution piping
• Press x male NPT end configuration for transitioning to threaded components
• Compatible with standard press tools using approved carbon steel jaws

Compatibility

Designed for use in carbon steel press-connect fuel gas piping systems operating under ANSI LC 4 guidelines. Press end is compatible with industry-standard press tools and approved jaws rated for carbon steel press fitting systems.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed gas fitter or plumber in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC requirements, and the tool and fitting manufacturer instructions. Shut off and depressurize the gas supply before cutting into any existing line. Use only approved press jaws specified for carbon steel 404G fittings — using incorrect jaw profiles can result in incomplete crimps and joint failure. Inspect the HNBR sealing element for damage before pressing, and verify the press indicator window or visual confirmation method per the tool manufacturer guidelines after each crimp.
