The core is virgin PVC reinforced with polyester yarn braiding, then over-braided with type 304 stainless steel for tensile strength and long-term durability. Chrome-plated brass hex nuts and washers provide a dependable hand-tight seal without the need for tools. Rated to a maximum pressure of 125 psi and a maximum temperature of 180 degrees F, this connector is built to handle standard water supply conditions. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this connector as a direct supply line between the shutoff valve and the toilet tank fill valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 496-105 is sized with a 3\/8 inch female compression inlet and a 7\/8 inch ballcock nut outlet, spanning a 20 inch length. This sizing is standard for most residential and light commercial toilet installations where a 3\/8 inch angle stop or straight stop shutoff valve feeds the toilet tank. The connector is IAPMO listed, making it acceptable under the Uniform Plumbing Code for use in jurisdictions that enforce IAPMO standards. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for new construction, renovation, and fixture replacement work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType 304 stainless steel over-braid for corrosion resistance and mechanical strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVirgin PVC core with polyester yarn reinforcement layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated brass hex nuts and washers for a hand-tight leak-resistant seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 125 psi maximum working pressure and 180 degrees F maximum temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIAPMO listed for residential, commercial, and industrial water supply applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch female compression x 7\/8 inch ballcock nut x 20 inch length configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard OEM-style replacement or new-installation supply line for toilet fixtures requiring a 3\/8 inch female compression inlet and a 7\/8 inch ballcock nut outlet with a 20 inch reach.

Shut off the water supply at the angle stop or straight stop shutoff valve and flush the toilet to relieve pressure before disconnecting the existing supply line. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the shutoff valve and the ballcock nut onto the fill valve inlet, then turn on the supply and inspect for leaks. Do not over-tighten with tools, as this can crack the ballcock inlet or distort the compression ferrule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch female compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch ballcock nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 180 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBraid Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 304 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Virgin PVC with polyester yarn braiding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-plated brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.285 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification\u003c\/strong\u003e: IAPMO listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Residential, commercial, and industrial\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: BK\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 496-105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"B\u0026K","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346829934898,"sku":"496-105","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310549846.jpg?v=1782091660","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bk-496-105-toilet-supply-connector-3-8-in-fc-x-7-8-in-bc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
