Coda Resources 506738 Galvanized Iron Union 1 Inch

Product Description

The CODA RESOURCES 506738 is a 1-inch galvanized malleable iron union fitting designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing and decorative piping applications. The union allows a completed pipe loop or run to be broken down and reassembled without disturbing the rest of the system — a standard requirement any time a section of pipe needs to be disconnected cleanly. Constructed from malleable iron with a galvanized finish, the fitting measures 2.51 inches wide by 2.31 inches tall and is suitable for water service as well as decorative pipe installations. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting wherever future serviceability of a pipe run is required.

This union fitting is used in residential and light commercial threaded pipe systems. It is appropriate for water lines and decorative pipe assemblies where 1-inch NPT connections are required. The galvanized coating provides a silver finish and a degree of corrosion resistance suited to typical interior plumbing environments. It is also commonly selected for exposed decorative piping projects, furniture framing, and similar non-pressure-critical fabrication work where malleable iron fittings are specified.

Installation Notes

Union fittings are typically installed by licensed plumbers or experienced pipefitters working with threaded iron pipe systems. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before disassembling or installing any union fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly, and tighten using pipe wrenches to a secure, leak-free connection. Work must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements for the intended service.
