Green Leaf Ftc 112 Nylon Pipe Coupling 1.5 in Fipt

Product Description

The GREEN LEAF FTC 112 is a 1.5-inch nylon plastic pipe coupling designed for joining same-size pipe runs with female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on both ends. Molded from nylon, this coupling resists corrosion and handles typical water service and plumbing distribution applications. It carries NSF 61 and NSF 372 certifications, confirming suitability for contact with potable water and compliance with lead-free requirements. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when a straight, in-line connection is needed without changing direction or pipe diameter. Its white nylon construction keeps weight low at 0.142 pounds per unit.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where non-metallic fittings are preferred or required. Common applications include potable water supply lines, irrigation manifolds, and similar low-pressure fluid distribution piping where nylon offers an advantage over brass or PVC in terms of chemical resistance and flexibility. The FIPT x FIPT end configuration accepts male-threaded pipe or nipples on both sides, making it a standard in-line repair or extension fitting.

Key Features

• 1.5-inch fitting size with FIPT x FIPT end connections for straightforward in-line joining
• Nylon construction resists corrosion and chemical attack in water service environments
• NSF 61 certified for contact with potable water systems
• NSF 372 certified for lead-free compliance
• Lightweight at 0.142 pounds, reducing load on pipe supports
• White color finish for easy identification in multi-material piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1.5-inch FIPT-threaded plumbing systems requiring a straight coupling in nylon construction.

Installation Notes

A licensed plumber should install this fitting in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely before removing existing fittings or threading in this coupling. Use appropriate thread sealant tape or compound rated for use with nylon fittings and potable water systems. Do not overtighten, as nylon threads can crack under excessive torque.
