Boshart fa-075nl Lead Free Bronze Female Insert Adapter

Product Description

The BOSHART fa-075nl is a lead free bronze female insert adapter designed for use in potable water and plumbing distribution systems. This fitting connects 0.75-inch FPT (female pipe thread) on one end to a barbed insert connection on the other, allowing a threaded fitting or valve to transition directly to poly pipe. Lead free bronze construction meets drinking water compliance standards, making this adapter suitable for installations where material certification is required. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters are the typical installers for this type of bronze fitting.

This adapter is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a threaded connection must join a poly pipe run. Common install scenarios include well water systems, irrigation supply lines, and in-building distribution where polyethylene pipe is the primary run material. The fitting is designed for poly pipe connections and is not intended for hose applications. Its bronze body provides corrosion resistance in both potable and non-potable water service.

Key Features

• Lead free bronze construction for potable water compliance
• 0.75-inch FPT on one end transitions to a barbed insert for poly pipe
• Smooth internal channel promotes full flow with minimal friction loss

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure before installing or removing any fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the FPT connection before assembly. Do not use this fitting with hose applications or with pipe materials other than poly pipe.
