B38;K Llc 57525 Galvanized Steel Insert Coupling 1 Inch

Product Description

The B38;K LLC 57525 is a 1-inch galvanized steel insert coupling configured with an insert-by-insert connection pattern. This fitting is used to join two lengths of polyethylene or flexible plastic tubing in a straight-run configuration. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance in moderate-moisture environments. At approximately 0.21 pounds, it is a compact, low-profile fitting suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Licensed plumbers and irrigation technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This insert coupling is designed for use in irrigation systems, residential water supply lines, and light-duty fluid transfer applications where a barbed insert-style connection is required. The insert-by-insert configuration allows the fitting to connect two hose or tubing segments without threading. It measures approximately 3.3 inches in length, 1.1 inches in height, and 1.1 inches in width, making it suitable for installations in tight spaces or junction boxes.
