Bmi 6036 Brass Coupling Lead Free 1.5 X 1 Inch

Product Description

The BMI 6036 is a lead-free brass coupling designed for joining pipe sections in plumbing systems where potable water compliance is required. This reducing coupling connects a 1.5-inch pipe to a 1-inch pipe, making it a practical fitting for transition points in supply lines and distribution systems. Lead-free construction meets current federal and state requirements for fittings used in drinking water service. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of coupling during new construction, retrofit work, and repair applications where a reduction in pipe diameter is needed.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations. It is typically used in domestic water supply systems, including hot and cold water lines, where a step-down from 1.5-inch to 1-inch pipe is required. The lead-free brass material is appropriate for potable water contact and performs well in standard water supply pressure and temperature ranges. Plumbing contractors will find this fitting useful in a range of service and new-install scenarios.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets federal Safe Drinking Water Act requirements for potable water fittings
• Reducing profile connects 1.5-inch pipe to 1-inch pipe in a single fitting
• Brass material provides corrosion resistance in water supply applications
• Compact coupling form factor for use in tight installation spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-install reducing coupling for residential and light commercial plumbing systems requiring a 1.5-inch to 1-inch brass transition fitting in potable water service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing any existing fittings or installing this coupling. Use appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for potable water service if the fitting uses threaded connections. Do not overtighten, as brass fittings can be damaged by excessive torque.
