Bmi 46707 Press-fit Female Adapter Carbon Gas 1.25 in

Product Description

The BMI 46707 is a 1.25-inch press-fit x female adapter designed for carbon steel gas piping systems. This fitting creates a secure, tool-free mechanical connection between press-fit carbon steel pipe and a female-threaded component. It is used in natural gas and propane distribution lines in residential and light commercial applications. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters install this type of adapter when transitioning from a press-fit run to a threaded valve, regulator, or appliance connection. The carbon steel construction is suited for dry gas service.

This adapter is used in carbon press gas fitting assemblies where a press-fit system terminates at a female-threaded connection point. Typical installations include gas supply lines serving furnaces, boilers, water heaters, and commercial cooking equipment. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit work where press-fit gas piping is specified or already in service.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) and all applicable local codes. Shut off and verify zero pressure on the gas line before cutting or fitting. Press-fit connections require a manufacturer-approved press tool with the correct jaw set for this fitting size and system. After pressing, inspect each joint for proper ring seating and conduct a pressure test before returning the system to service.
