Ford Meter Box c44-33-u-nl Cts Ultra-tite No Lead Coupling

Product Description

The FORD METER BOX c44-33-u-nl is a no-lead, Ultra-Tite coupling designed to join two sections of 0.75-inch CTS (Copper Tube Size) polyethylene pipe. This push-connect style fitting creates a secure, leak-resistant joint without solder, clamps, or adhesives. Weighing 0.72 pounds, it is compact and easy to handle in confined trench or vault conditions. Licensed plumbers and underground utility contractors use this fitting for potable water service lines where no-lead compliance is required by code. Its Ultra-Tite design delivers a reliable mechanical connection suited for direct-bury PE pipe applications.

This coupling is intended for use in residential and light commercial water service installations where 0.75-inch CTS polyethylene pipe is the specified material. It is commonly installed during new water service runs, meter set connections, and repair work on existing PE service lines. The no-lead construction meets regulatory requirements for fittings used in potable water systems. It is well suited for underground installations where corrosion resistance and ease of assembly are critical to long-term performance.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the water main and depressurize the line before cutting into existing service pipe. Ensure the pipe end is cut square and deburred before seating it fully into the Ultra-Tite coupling to achieve a proper seal. Do not exceed the pressure and temperature ratings for the polyethylene pipe being joined.
