Apollo Powerpress 7482376 Carbon Steel Gas Press Union

Product Description

The APOLLO POWERPRESS 7482376 is a 1-inch carbon steel press union designed for gas distribution piping systems. It uses a press-style mechanical connection on both ends, eliminating the need for threading or welding at the joint. This fitting is engineered for use in Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 carbon steel piping and provides a secure, leak-resistant union connection. It measures 4.65 inches in length with a 2.36-inch width and height profile, and weighs 1.01 pounds. Plumbers and gas piping contractors install this fitting where quick, reliable mechanical joining is required in commercial or residential gas lines.

This press union is suited for gas distribution networks that specify press-fit technology as the joining method. It is applicable in both residential and light commercial piping installations using Schedule 10 or Schedule 40 carbon steel pipe. The Press x Press end configuration on both the A and B sides accepts standard 1-inch press tooling, making it a practical choice for service work and new construction where open flame or threading equipment is not preferred or permitted.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or gas piping professional in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC requirements. Shut off and verify zero gas pressure in the line before making any connection. Use only press tooling rated and approved for carbon steel gas fittings — do not substitute tooling intended for copper or stainless press systems. Inspect the pipe end for roundness and cleanliness before pressing to ensure a proper seal.
