This fitting provides a reliable, leak-resistant joint without soldering or special tools, making it well-suited for water service line installations. The no-lead construction meets safe drinking water requirements. At 1.0 pound, the coupling is compact and sized for direct burial or meter pit applications. Licensed plumbers and water service contractors are the primary installers of this fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is used in residential and light commercial water service applications where a transition is needed between iron pipe threaded fittings and CTS polyethylene tubing. Typical installation scenarios include water meter connections, curb stop transitions, and service line repairs. The Ultra-Tite design is intended for use with standard CTS PE pipe in underground water service environments where a mechanically secure, no-lead-compliant joint is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-inch FIP female iron pipe thread inlet for connection to threaded fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-inch CTS compression outlet for polyethylene (PE) tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-Tite compression system provides a secure, leak-resistant joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo-lead construction compliant with safe drinking water regulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for direct burial and meter pit water service installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 1-inch FIP to 1-inch CTS PE pipe water service connections where no-lead compliance is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or water service contractor.
