Homewerks Worldwide Llc 7228-12-38-2 Faucet Connector

Product Description

The HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC 7228-12-38-2 is a lead-free faucet supply connector designed for potable water plumbing applications. It features a 3/8 inch compression inlet on one end and a 1/2 inch female iron pipe (FIP) outlet on the other, with a 12 inch body length. The connector is constructed from reinforced poly vinyl chloride (PVC), providing flexibility and durability under typical residential water supply pressures. The wetted surfaces of this connector contain less than 0.25 percent lead by weight, meeting the requirements of California AB 1953 and Vermont S152 low-lead restrictions. Licensed plumbers and qualified installers use this part for final connections at faucets and fixture shutoffs.

This connector is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a flexible supply line is needed between a shutoff valve and a faucet or fixture. The 3/8 inch compression end connects directly to standard angle stop or straight stop valves, while the 1/2 inch FIP end threads onto most standard faucet shanks. The 12 inch length accommodates typical under-sink cabinet depths and standard rough-in dimensions. It is sold in packages of 25 units, making it practical for plumbing contractors stocking for multiple jobs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off the water supply at the angle stop or main valve and relieve line pressure before disconnecting or connecting supply lines. Hand-tighten the compression fitting first, then snug with a wrench — do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can crack the fitting body. Inspect for leaks at both ends after restoring water pressure.
