The core is virgin PVC reinforced with polyester yarn braiding, then over-braided with Type 304 stainless steel for tensile strength and corrosion resistance. Chrome-plated brass hex nuts and washers provide a dependable hand-tight seal without the need for pipe dope or thread tape on the compression end. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 125 psi and a maximum temperature of 180 degrees F, this connector meets the demands of residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing installations. IAPMO listed for code-compliance confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for toilet rough-in supply line replacements and new installations where a 1\/2 inch female iron pipe (FIP) inlet and a 7\/8 inch ballcock (BC) outlet are required. The 12 inch length accommodates standard wall-to-toilet rough-in distances in most residential and light commercial restroom configurations. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this connector during fixture replacements, bathroom remodels, and routine supply line maintenance. Its IAPMO listing makes it acceptable under most model plumbing codes that reference IAPMO standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 304 stainless steel over-braid for corrosion resistance and burst strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVirgin PVC core with polyester yarn braiding for flexible, kink-resistant performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrome-plated brass hex nuts and washers for a reliable hand-tight 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 — approved for residential, commercial, and industrial water supply applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 inch length with 1\/2 inch FIP x 7\/8 inch BC end connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement supply connector for toilet fixtures requiring a 1\/2 inch female iron pipe inlet connection and a 7\/8 inch ballcock outlet connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson in accordance with local plumbing codes and applicable sections of the IPC or UPC. Shut off the water supply and flush the toilet to relieve line pressure before disconnecting the existing connector. Hand-tighten the brass nuts only — do not use a pipe wrench or channel-lock pliers on the ballcock nut, as overtightening can crack the toilet tank fitting. After installation, restore water supply slowly and inspect both connections for leaks before leaving the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch Female Iron Pipe (FIP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch Ballcock (BC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Virgin PVC with polyester yarn braiding\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOver-Braid Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 304 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut and Washer Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-plated brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working 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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.204 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification\u003c\/strong\u003e: IAPMO listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 496-123\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"B\u0026K","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51345493524786,"sku":"496-123","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310549776.jpg?v=1782059898","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bk-496-123-toilet-supply-connector-12-inch-braided-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
