Brasscraft 68-14-12X Reducing Adapter 7/8x3/4 in Compression Mnpt

Product Description

The BRASSCRAFT 68-14-12X is a reducing adapter from the 68 Series line, designed to connect a 7/8-inch compression fitting to a 3/4-inch male NPT threaded port. Constructed from brass, this fitting provides reliable corrosion resistance and durability in pressurized plumbing systems. It is a standard utility fitting used by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians when transitioning between compression and threaded connections in supply lines, appliance hookups, and similar service work.

This reducing adapter suits residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a size reduction is needed between a compression-style tubing connection and a male NPT threaded fitting. Typical uses include gas appliance supply connections, water supply line transitions, and service valve installations. The brass construction makes it appropriate for both water and gas service where local codes permit brass fittings.

Key Features

• 7/8-inch compression inlet transitions to 3/4-inch male NPT outlet
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and long service life
• 68 Series design for consistent fitment in standard plumbing configurations
• Compression x MNPT connection eliminates the need for soldering on the compression side

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for residential and light commercial plumbing systems requiring a 7/8-inch compression to 3/4-inch MNPT reducing connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before disassembling existing fittings. Compression fittings require proper ferrule seating and hand-tightening followed by wrench tightening — do not overtighten. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MNPT threads as required by the applicable code and service medium.
