Asc Engineered Solutions 8700133401 Galvanized Coupling

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700133401 is a 1/8-inch female pipe thread (FPT) x 1/8-inch FPT straight coupling manufactured from malleable galvanized iron. It connects two threaded pipe segments of equal diameter in a continuous run, maintaining a full-flow, in-line path. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited for standard plumbing, gas distribution, and industrial piping systems. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when joining two externally threaded pipe ends without a change in direction or diameter. At 0.06 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight component designed for small-diameter pipe runs.

This coupling is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where 1/8-inch NPT-threaded pipe is specified. Common install scenarios include low-pressure gas lines, compressed air systems, water distribution, and general industrial pipe assemblies. It is sold individually and is compatible with standard NPT-threaded pipe and fittings of the matching size.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides impact resistance compared to cast iron in threaded assemblies
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish resists corrosion in standard service environments
• 1/8-inch FPT x 1/8-inch FPT straight coupling for in-line pipe connections
• Standard NPT thread form for compatibility with common pipe and fittings
• Lightweight at 0.06 pounds, suited for small-diameter piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/8-inch NPT-threaded malleable iron pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and industrial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Shut off supply pressure and verify the line is depressurized before disassembling any threaded pipe connection. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free joint without overtightening, which can crack malleable fittings.
