It is designed for joining threaded pipe runs in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial piping systems. The all-brass construction resists corrosion and holds up in both wet and dry service environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during new construction and retrofit work where a reliable female-to-female threaded connection is required. At 0.25 pounds, it is a compact, single-piece component suited for tight spaces and close-quarters piping layouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where Class 125 pressure ratings are appropriate. Typical installations include water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and general-purpose pipe assemblies that call for a 1\/2 inch FBSPT x FBSPT connection. The fitting threads onto standard tapered male pipe ends on both sides, making it a straightforward choice for coupling two threaded pipe sections or connecting to threaded valves, gauges, and similar components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch fitting size with FBSPT x FBSPT end connections on both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating suitable for standard residential and light commercial service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in water and fluid piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact, lightweight design at approximately 0.25 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece construction with no moving parts for long-term reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 1\/2 inch threaded pipe systems requiring Class 125 FBSPT x FBSPT connections in plumbing and HVAC piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male pipe threads before engaging the fitting to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten, as brass threads can be damaged by excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: FBSPT x FBSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\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: MERIT BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: XB102-08\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541817590066,"sku":"XB102-08","price":19.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b69d2e816864c47c461f28f9e37d47e5_2cf279e1-1861-4db4-8ad5-d7f373b76173.jpg?v=1785885740","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-xb102-08-brass-pipe-fitting-1-2-in-fbspt-class-125","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
