Brasscraft B116DW Braided Dishwasher Connector 16in

Product Description

The BRASSCRAFT B116DW is a braided polymer dishwasher supply connector designed to link a dishwasher water inlet valve to a standard household supply line. It uses 3/8-inch compression fittings on both ends and measures 16 inches in total length, making it suitable for typical under-counter dishwasher installations. The braided polymer construction provides flexibility during routing while maintaining resistance to kinking and burst. Plumbers and experienced DIYers install this connector as part of a new dishwasher installation or as a direct replacement for a worn or leaking supply line.

This connector is intended for residential dishwasher water supply applications. The 16-inch length accommodates standard cabinet depths where the shutoff valve is located beneath the kitchen sink or within the adjacent cabinet space. The 3/8-inch compression-to-compression configuration connects directly to a standard 3/8-inch compression angle stop and the dishwasher inlet fitting without the need for additional adapters in most installations.

Key Features

• Braided polymer construction resists kinking and provides flexible routing
• 3/8-inch compression fittings on both ends for tool-assisted, leak-resistant connections
• 16-inch length suited for standard under-counter dishwasher supply runs
• Designed as a direct replacement for deteriorated or leaking dishwasher supply connectors

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement supply connector for residential dishwasher installations using 3/8-inch compression inlet and supply connections.

Installation Notes

This connector is typically installed by a licensed plumber or qualified DIYer during dishwasher installation or supply line replacement. Shut off the water supply at the angle stop valve and disconnect power or gas to the dishwasher before beginning work. Hand-tighten compression fittings first, then snug with an adjustable wrench — avoid overtightening, which can crack the fitting seat. After installation, restore water supply and inspect both connections for leaks before returning the dishwasher to service.
