The fitting features a 1\/2 inch male pipe thread (MPT) on one end and a barbed insert end on the other, allowing a secure transition between threaded fittings and poly pipe. Manufactured from lead-free bronze, this adapter meets drinking water safety standards and is suited for potable water distribution systems. It is a standard fitting type installed by licensed plumbers and water system technicians in residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert adapter is intended for use with polyethylene (poly) pipe, not garden hose or rubber hose assemblies. It is commonly installed in well water systems, irrigation supply lines, and rural water distribution where poly pipe transitions to threaded iron or brass pipe fittings. The MPT end threads directly into female-threaded valves, manifolds, or pipe couplings, while the insert barb end seats into the poly pipe and is secured with a stainless steel or galvanized clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free bronze construction meets potable water compliance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch MPT x insert configuration for poly pipe to threaded system transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBarbed insert end designed for secure, clamp-secured connection to poly pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with poly pipe, not intended for hose applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth internal bore supports consistent flow through the fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard insert fitting for 1\/2 inch polyethylene pipe systems with 1\/2 inch MPT threaded connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water system technician. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. The insert barb end should be fully seated into the poly pipe before applying a clamp; use an appropriately sized stainless steel or galvanized hose clamp torqued per the clamp manufacturer specification. Thread the MPT end into the female fitting by hand before applying a wrench to avoid cross-threading, and use thread sealant tape or compound rated for potable water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch MPT x Insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyethylene (poly) pipe\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: BOSHART\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: bma-050nl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BOSHART","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468072026418,"sku":"BMA-050NL","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313946527.jpg?v=1783913437","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/boshart-bma-050nl-lead-free-bronze-insert-adapter-1-2-in-mpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
