It connects press-fit piping to male-threaded fittings or valves without soldering, welding, or open flame, making it well suited for gas line installations and retrofits in both new construction and existing systems. The press-fit connection method reduces labor time and requires only a compatible press tool for a secure, leak-tested joint. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters are the primary installers of this fitting in commercial and residential applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is used where a carbon press gas piping system transitions to a male-threaded connection point, such as at a valve, appliance stub-out, or manifold. At 2 inches, it fits main distribution runs and larger branch lines in residential or light commercial gas systems. The carbon steel construction is appropriate for dry natural gas and propane service in interior piping configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress-fit connection eliminates open-flame joining methods for gas line work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch size suits main and large branch gas distribution lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction rated for natural gas and propane service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale adapter end allows direct connection to female-threaded valves and components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard press-fit tooling used on carbon press gas systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style fitting for carbon press gas piping systems.

Shut off and depressurize the gas line completely before cutting into existing piping. A manufacturer-approved press tool with the correct jaw size is required to achieve a proper press-fit connection. Never pressurize the system before all joints have been pressed and visually inspected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Press-Fit x Male Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Press Gas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.531 pounds\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: BMI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46809\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51306838622514,"sku":"46809","price":70.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309549219.jpg?v=1781300077","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-46809-press-fit-male-adapter-carbon-gas-2-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
