Green Leaf Ftc 12 Nylon Pipe Coupling 1/2 Inch Fipt

Product Description

The GREEN LEAF FTC 12 is a 1/2-inch nylon pipe coupling designed for joining same-diameter pipe sections in potable water and fluid distribution systems. Constructed from white nylon with female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on both ends, this coupling provides a secure, leak-resistant joint in low-pressure plumbing applications. It carries NSF 61 and NSF 372 certifications, confirming suitability for contact with drinking water and compliance with lead-free material standards. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or light commercial water supply lines will find this fitting a reliable, code-compliant solution.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where nylon fittings are appropriate — including cold and cool water supply lines, irrigation manifolds, and water treatment system connections. The FIPT x FIPT configuration allows it to thread onto male-threaded pipe or fittings on both sides, making it a straightforward inline connector. Its lightweight nylon construction resists corrosion and is well-suited for environments where metal fittings may be undesirable.

Key Features

• 1/2-inch FIPT x FIPT end connections for standard threaded pipe joining
• Nylon construction resists corrosion and chemical degradation in water service
• NSF 61 certified for use in potable water systems
• NSF 372 certified for lead-free compliance
• White color finish for easy identification in finished plumbing runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/2-inch MNPT threaded pipe systems in residential and light commercial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely before installing or replacing any threaded fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or compound rated for nylon fittings to the male threads before assembly, and hand-tighten followed by a modest additional turn with pliers — avoid over-torquing nylon fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force. Inspect the connection for leaks after restoring pressure.
