Asc Engineered Solutions 8700158507 Galvanized Coupling 1/8 in Fpt

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700158507 is a standard merchant galvanized steel coupling designed to join two straight pipe sections using 1/8-inch female pipe thread (FPT) connections on both ends. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited for a range of common piping media. This fitting is manufactured from steel and is appropriate for low-pressure service applications where a reliable, threaded inline connection is required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and general contractors typically install this type of fitting during rough-in work or repair of small-diameter piping runs.

This coupling is used in low-pressure piping systems handling water, oil, air, or gas lines. The 1/8-inch FPT thread size makes it a common choice for small-diameter service lines, instrument connections, and utility piping found in both residential and light commercial settings. The galvanized coating makes it suitable for applications where mild moisture exposure is expected.

Key Features

• 1/8-inch FPT x 1/8-inch FPT straight coupling configuration for inline pipe joining
• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in low-pressure service
• Suitable for use with water, oil, air, and gas piping systems
• Standard merchant pattern for broad compatibility with threaded pipe fittings
• Lightweight at 0.036 pounds, minimizing load on small-diameter lines

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded replacement fitting for 1/8-inch NPT piping systems in low-pressure water, oil, air, and gas line applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements where gas service is involved. Shut off the supply line and relieve system pressure completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten to a snug fit without over-torquing the small-diameter threads. Verify system pressure rating compatibility before returning the line to service.
