Bmi Usa 6809 Brass Pipe Cross Lead Free 2 Inch

Product Description

The BMI USA 6809 is a lead-free brass pipe cross fitting designed for use in potable water and general plumbing distribution systems. A pipe cross connects four pipe segments at a single junction point, allowing flow to split or combine in a cruciform configuration. At 2 inches in diameter and constructed from solid brass, this fitting delivers the corrosion resistance and pressure integrity that licensed plumbers require on both residential and light commercial jobs. Its lead-free construction meets current safe drinking water standards, making it suitable for installations where potable water contact is a factor.

This fitting is intended for licensed plumbers and pipe fitters working on water supply, distribution, and process piping systems. The 2-inch size is commonly found in main distribution lines, manifold assemblies, and branch configurations in both residential and commercial plumbing layouts. It is well suited for applications where a single inline point must feed or receive flow from multiple directions simultaneously.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets safe drinking water compliance requirements
• 2-inch pipe cross configuration allows four-way flow distribution at a single junction
• Solid brass material provides corrosion resistance and long service life in wet environments

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the applicable International Plumbing Code (IPC) or local authority having jurisdiction. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before removing any existing fittings or making new connections. Ensure thread engagement, sealant type, and joint method match the requirements of the piping system and local code. Do not overtighten threaded brass fittings, as this can crack the fitting body.
