Bk W034SS101015 Ss Water Heater Connector 3/4 Fpt 15 in

Product Description

The BK W034SS101015 is a corrugated stainless steel water heater connector designed to create a flexible, durable water supply connection between a water heater and the building supply line. Built from 304 stainless steel, this connector handles a maximum operating temperature of 180 degrees F and a maximum pressure of 125 psi. Both ends terminate in 3/4-inch FPT (female pipe thread) fittings, and the connector spans 15 inches in length. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this fitting in residential, commercial, and industrial settings where a reliable, corrosion-resistant flex connector is required.

This connector is suited for water heater supply and return connections wherever 3/4-inch FPT threaded ports are present. Its corrugated stainless steel body allows for minor positional adjustments during installation, reducing stress on fixed supply lines. The 15-inch length accommodates standard rough-in distances found in most water heater alcoves, utility rooms, and mechanical spaces. IAPMO listing confirms the fitting meets the applicable plumbing and mechanical codes for residential, commercial, and industrial water supply connections to fixtures.

Key Features

• Corrugated 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and long service life
• 3/4-inch FPT x 3/4-inch FPT end connections for direct threaded installation
• 15-inch body length to suit standard water heater rough-in spacing
• Rated to 180 degrees F and 125 psi for typical domestic hot water service

Compatibility

Approved for residential, commercial, and industrial applications for water supply connections to fixtures with 3/4-inch FPT threaded inlets and outlets.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IAPMO-adopted standards. Shut off the cold water supply and drain the line before removing any existing connector or fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe compound to all male threaded connections before making up joints. Do not over-bend or kink the corrugated body during installation, as this can compromise the connector and void any listing compliance.
