Groen z005516 Pipe Union 3/4 Npt

Product Description

The GROEN z005516 is a 3/4 NPT pipe union designed for use in commercial foodservice and industrial steam equipment. A pipe union allows two sections of pipe to be connected or disconnected without rotating either pipe section, making it a critical component for serviceability in pressurized plumbing and steam systems. This fitting is a genuine Groen replacement part intended for installation by licensed plumbers or qualified commercial appliance service technicians working on Groen equipment.

This union fitting is used in commercial kitchen environments where Groen steam-jacketed kettles, tilting skillets, steamers, and similar appliances require pipe connections that may need periodic disconnection for service or component replacement. The 3/4 NPT thread size is common in the steam and hot-water plumbing circuits found in heavy-duty foodservice equipment. Installations are typically found in restaurant kitchens, cafeterias, hospitals, and institutional cooking facilities.
