Built from forged steel for superior strength and pressure integrity, this union allows technicians to disconnect and reconnect piping runs without cutting pipe. The 1\/2 inch size fits common branch and service line applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in systems where threaded connections are specified and high-pressure rating is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis union is suited for industrial and commercial piping applications including steam, hydraulic, and high-pressure fluid systems where Class 3000 fittings are called out by specification. It is installed in 1\/2 inch threaded pipe runs that require a break-apart joint for future service access. The threaded end connections allow for installation with standard pipe wrenches without the need for welding or specialized tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForged steel construction for high-pressure service integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass 3000 pressure rating for demanding piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch threaded connections for standard NPT pipe compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnion design allows pipe disconnection without cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact form factor suitable for tight piping arrangements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for 1\/2 inch threaded pipe systems requiring Class 3000 forged steel unions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing and mechanical codes, including ASME B16.11 standards for forged fittings. De-pressurize and drain the piping system completely before removing or installing any union fitting. Use an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid on all threaded connections. Do not over-torque the union nut, as this can damage the seat and compromise the seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: Class 3000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Forged Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.68 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: mn-ft3un03\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MATCO-NORCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51619918971186,"sku":"MN-FT3UN03","price":21.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/matco-norca-mn-ft3un03-forged-steel-union-class-3000-1-2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
