The lead-free brass construction meets Safe Drinking Water Act compliance requirements, making it suitable for installation on any water line that serves human consumption. A dielectric union prevents galvanic corrosion at the joint between copper and steel or iron pipe by electrically isolating the two sides. Licensed plumbers install this fitting wherever a transition between dissimilar metal pipes requires both a mechanical union joint and corrosion protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications, including water heater connections, boiler supply and return lines, and potable water distribution systems where copper tubing meets threaded steel or iron pipe. The FPT x FPT configuration allows connection to any standard male-threaded nipple or male adapter on both sides of the union. It is well suited for new construction and replacement installations in tight spaces where a union joint is needed for future serviceability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch FPT x FPT connection on both ends for standard threaded pipe installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDielectric insulation isolates dissimilar metals to prevent galvanic corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free construction meets Safe Drinking Water Act requirements for potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnion design allows pipe sections to be disconnected and reconnected without cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.92 pounds for easy handling in confined mechanical spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement dielectric union for residential and light commercial plumbing systems requiring a 1-inch female pipe thread connection on both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any union fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or paste to the male threads on both sides before engaging the union. Do not overtighten the union nut, as excessive force can crack the dielectric sleeve and compromise the galvanic isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: FPT x FPT (Female Pipe Thread x Female Pipe Thread)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dielectric Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.92 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MATCO-NORCA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: dun-ea05\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MATCO-NORCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233365786930,"sku":"DUN-EA05","price":51.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307633238.jpg?v=1780098491","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/matco-norca-dun-ea05-dielectric-union-1-in-fpt-x-fpt-lead-free","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
