Bmi Usa 4678 Lead Free Brass Ready Cut Pipe 18 in

Product Description

The BMI USA 4678 is a lead-free brass ready cut pipe designed for threaded plumbing installations. Measuring 18 inches in length, this pipe arrives pre-cut and pre-threaded, eliminating job-site cutting and reducing installation time. Constructed from red brass, it meets lead-free material standards required in potable water systems. Licensed plumbers rely on this fitting for supply line connections, water distribution rough-in work, and fixture tie-ins where a fixed-length threaded pipe is needed.

This pipe is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications involving potable water supply lines. Its 18-inch length covers a wide range of standard rough-in distances, making it a practical choice for fixture connections, riser installations, and similar threaded-pipe service work. The lead-free brass construction makes it appropriate for use in drinking water systems where compliance with lead-free standards is required.

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 making any connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all threaded joints before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections on brass fittings, as this can crack or distort the fitting body.
