This fitting transitions a press-style connection to a standard FIP threaded port, allowing integration with valves, pumps, manifolds, and other threaded components without soldering or open flame. At 3 inches, it is suited for larger-diameter commercial and industrial plumbing runs. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is used in potable water, hydronic heating, and mechanical room piping applications where press-fit systems connect to threaded equipment or assemblies. The 3-inch size is common in commercial buildings, institutional facilities, and light industrial settings where larger flow capacity is required. The lead-free construction meets regulatory requirements for use in systems carrying drinking water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free construction for compliance with potable water regulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress-style end eliminates the need for soldering or open flame during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale iron pipe (FIP) threaded end connects to standard threaded components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch size supports high-flow commercial and industrial piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact adapter format simplifies transitions between press and threaded systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style fitting for use in press-fit copper and copper-alloy piping systems that terminate to standard female NPT threaded connections in commercial and industrial plumbing installations.\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).
