Asc Engineered Solutions 8700158606 Galvanized Coupling

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700158606 is a standard merchant galvanized steel coupling designed to join two sections of straight pipe in low-pressure piping systems. Sized at 3/8 inch female pipe thread (FPT) on both ends, this coupling provides a secure, threaded connection between pipe runs. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for use in water, oil, air, and gas line applications. It is sold individually and is a common fitting used by plumbers and pipefitters in residential and light commercial installations where a reliable, straight inline connection is needed.

This coupling is suited for low-pressure piping scenarios in residential and light commercial settings. Typical applications include domestic water supply lines, compressed air distribution, oil transfer lines, and gas piping where low-pressure conditions apply and a straight pipe-to-pipe connection is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of threaded pipe assemblies across a range of service and new-construction applications.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch FPT on both ends for standard threaded pipe connections
• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• Standard merchant pattern provides a compact inline coupling profile
• Suitable for water, oil, air, and low-pressure gas line service
• Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of one

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service fitting compatible with 3/8 inch threaded steel pipe systems operating under low-pressure conditions.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable plumbing and gas codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the line before disassembling any existing fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male pipe threads before making up the joint. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
