Ford Meter Box a23-nl Meter Adapter 5/8x3/4 to 3/4 Inch No Lead

Product Description

The FORD METER BOX a23-nl is a no-lead meter adapter designed to convert a 5/8 inch x 3/4 inch meter connection to a 3/4 inch meter connection. This fitting is used in water metering applications where a meter swap or upgrade requires a change in connection size. Constructed without lead, it meets requirements for potable water service. At 0.39 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight fitting suited for residential and light commercial water meter installations performed by licensed plumbers and water utility technicians.

This adapter is used when replacing or upgrading water meters that differ in inlet and outlet sizing. It is typically installed at the meter setter or meter yoke assembly where the existing 5/8 inch x 3/4 inch meter port must be transitioned to accept a 3/4 inch meter. This fitting is appropriate for municipal water service connections and site utility work where no-lead compliance is required for any component in the potable water supply chain.
