Green Leaf Ftc 100 Nylon Pipe Coupling 1 Inch Fipt

Product Description

The GREEN LEAF FTC 100 is a 1-inch nylon pipe coupling designed for joining threaded pipe sections in plumbing and fluid-handling systems. Constructed from white nylon plastic, this coupling features female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on both ends, allowing it to mate with male-threaded pipe or fittings on each side. The lightweight nylon construction resists corrosion and is suited for use in low-pressure water distribution and similar applications. It carries NSF 61 and NSF 372 certifications, confirming compliance with drinking water system safety and lead-content standards. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial piping runs.

This coupling is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a straight, same-size threaded connection is needed. The FIPT x FIPT configuration makes it a direct thread-in fitting for joining two male-threaded pipe ends. Common applications include potable water lines, irrigation supply piping, and general fluid distribution where nylon fittings are code-acceptable. Its NSF 61 and NSF 372 ratings make it appropriate for systems carrying drinking water.

Key Features

• 1-inch FIPT x FIPT end connections for straight same-size coupling
• Nylon construction — corrosion-resistant and lightweight
• NSF 61 certified for contact with potable water systems
• NSF 372 certified for low lead content compliance
• White color for easy identification in piping assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1-inch FIPT x FIPT threaded coupling for use with male NPT-threaded pipe and fittings in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where nylon fittings meet code requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten by hand before using a pipe wrench — avoid overtightening nylon fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque. Verify that nylon fittings are permitted by the applicable code for the intended service conditions before installation.
