This fitting provides a compact, single-ended coupling that accepts a male-threaded pipe on one end, making it suitable for branch connections, dead-end closures, or instrument tap points. At 0.08 pounds and sized for 1\/2 inch pipe, it is a lightweight but durable fitting used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working on gas, steam, or water distribution systems where black steel pipe is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis half coupling is intended for use in commercial and industrial piping applications where black steel fittings are required by code or design. Typical install scenarios include natural gas distribution lines, low-pressure steam systems, and hydronic heating piping. The straight tapped configuration allows direct inline or branch tap connections without additional adapters. Plumbers and pipefitters commonly use this fitting when stubbing out service ports or connecting instrumentation to a main run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight tapped half coupling configuration for single-ended threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction for use in gas, steam, and hydronic piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch pipe size for standard small-bore distribution lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.08 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile suited for tight spaces and branch tap applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1\/2 inch black steel threaded piping systems in residential and commercial mechanical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements. Ensure the piping system is fully depressurized and isolated before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium. Inspect threads on both the fitting and mating pipe for damage before assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Tapped Half Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 320200439\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233563312434,"sku":"0320200439","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307627392.jpg?v=1780103301","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-320200439-half-coupling-1-2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
