It features an insert end on one side and a female NPT (FNPT) thread on the other, allowing a secure transition between insert-style PE pipe and standard threaded fittings. Rated at 125 psi cold working pressure, this adapter meets the demand of pressurized water service lines and distribution systems. The fitting is certified to contain less than 0.25% lead by weight, meeting no-lead compliance standards required in potable water applications. Licensed plumbers and water service contractors are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial water service applications where polyethylene pipe connects to threaded bronze or brass components. Typical installations include underground water service lines, irrigation mains, and similar pressure piping systems. The 2-inch nominal size makes it appropriate for main service line work where larger PE pipe diameters are used. The insert-style connection provides a reliable, vibration-resistant joint when used with the appropriate stainless steel clamps or crimp rings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo-lead bronze construction — certified at less than 0.25% lead by weight for potable water compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e125 psi cold working pressure rating for pressurized water service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInsert x FNPT end style transitions polyethylene pipe to female threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch nominal size suited for main water service line installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.31-inch length accommodates standard barb insertion depth with room for clamp or crimp ring placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 2-inch nominal polyethylene pipe in insert-style fitting applications.

Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely before making any connections. The insert end requires an appropriate stainless steel clamp or crimp ring secured with the correct tooling for the pipe material and diameter. Do not overtighten threaded connections — use thread sealant or PTFE tape on the FNPT end and hand-tighten before applying final torque with a wrench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Insert x FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Content\u003c\/strong\u003e: Less than 0.25% by weight (no-lead certified)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Adapter\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: AY MCDONALD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5420-318\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AY MCDONALD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467336974642,"sku":"5420-318","price":43.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313947305.jpg?v=1783901559","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ay-mcdonald-5420-318-bronze-female-adapter-2-in-insert-x-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
