Product Description

The HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC 542-12-12-B is a 0.5-inch male iron pipe (MIP) threaded stainless steel to CPVC transition adapter designed for connecting threaded metal pipe to CPVC piping systems. This fitting serves as a reliable mechanical transition between dissimilar pipe materials, providing a secure, leak-resistant joint in potable water and general plumbing applications.

Typical install scenarios include connecting CPVC runs to threaded valves, water heaters, or supply stubs. The fitting meets the California AB1953 no-lead requirement, making it compliant for potable water use in lead-restricted jurisdictions across the United States. It is sold in packages of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking job-site supplies.
