This fitting is used to join two sections of threaded pipe in a way that allows future disconnection without cutting or disturbing the surrounding line. At 2 inches in size, it is suited for moderate-flow plumbing and fluid-handling systems where serviceable unions are required. Weighing 3.124 pounds, the fitting is made of brass, which offers good corrosion resistance in water and low-pressure steam service. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded pipe systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis union is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where FBSPT threaded connections are specified. Class 125 ratings are common in water supply, hydronic heating, and general fluid distribution lines. The FBSPT x FBSPT configuration makes this fitting compatible with standard tapered pipe threads on both sides of the union, allowing clean make-up and break-down of the joint during system maintenance or equipment replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch fitting size for standard pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFBSPT x FBSPT end connections on both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 125 pressure rating suitable for water and low-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in wet plumbing environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnion design allows pipe sections to be disconnected without cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 2-inch threaded pipe systems using FBSPT connections rated at Class 125.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the applicable IPC or local plumbing code. Shut off and depressurize the supply line completely before disassembling or installing any union fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before make-up. Do not over-tighten brass fittings, as the material is softer than ferrous pipe and 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 Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\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: 3.124 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: XB187-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541466349874,"sku":"XB187-32","price":165.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/777b89cce1384497426053265c11d387.jpg?v=1785876949","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-xb187-32-brass-pipe-union-2-in-class-125","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
