Product Description

The BMI USA 6106 is a lead-free brass threaded union fitting designed for use in plumbing and mechanical piping systems. Built from solid brass, this 1-inch union provides a reliable, removable connection point between two pipe sections, making future service and system modifications straightforward. Its lead-free construction meets requirements for potable water applications, making it suitable for residential and commercial water supply lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of union where disconnection of piping runs may be required without cutting pipe.

This fitting is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing installations, including domestic water supply, hydronic heating, and mechanical room piping. The threaded design allows installation without soldering or specialized tools, working with standard NPT-threaded pipe. It is well suited for use in areas where routine access to piping connections is needed for maintenance or equipment service.
