Apollo Powerpress 7482365 Gas Press Union 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The APOLLO POWERPRESS 7482365 is a 3/4 inch carbon steel press union designed for fuel gas piping systems that demand reliable, leak-proof connections. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant carbon steel, this union uses a press x press end style to create mechanically strong joints without open flame or solder. It is sized at 4.11 inches in length and 1.77 inches in both width and height, and weighs 0.68 pounds. Licensed gas fitters and plumbers install this fitting in natural gas and propane distribution lines in both new construction and retrofit work.

This union is suited for residential and light commercial fuel gas piping applications where press-fit technology is specified. The press x press configuration allows for fast, consistent connections on both ends of the union, making it practical for tight spaces or situations where torch work is restricted or prohibited. It performs in new construction rough-in as well as in retrofit scenarios where existing piping requires a union joint for serviceability.

Key Features

• Carbon steel construction provides high mechanical strength for fuel gas service
• Press x press end style on both sides eliminates the need for threading or soldering
• 3/4 inch bore on both Side A and Side B for straight inline union connections
• Compact profile at 4.11 inches long and 1.77 inches wide for installation in confined spaces
• Lightweight at 0.68 pounds for easy handling during overhead or wall-cavity installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting for use in 3/4 inch fuel gas piping systems that accept press x press union connections in carbon steel.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) and all applicable local codes. Shut off and verify gas supply is fully depressurized before making any connections. A calibrated press tool approved for the fitting system is required to achieve a proper press joint. After installation, pressure-test the system and inspect all joints with an approved gas leak detection solution before returning the system to service.
