Midland Industries 28063 Brass Pipe Coupling 1 in Nptf

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 28063 is a full-port brass pipe coupling designed to join two sections of pipe using female NPTF connections on both ends. Both ports accept 1-inch female NPTF threads with a 1-11-1/2 thread pitch, and the fitting is rated to 1200 psi working pressure across a service temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F. At 1.89 inches in length with a 1-1/2-inch hex profile, this coupling is sized for standard wrench access during installation. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this type of fitting in pressurized fluid and gas piping assemblies where a reliable, leak-free union between two pipe runs is required.

The 28063 is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and general-purpose pipe assemblies. The NPTF thread form provides a dry-seal connection that does not rely solely on sealant to achieve pressure integrity, making it appropriate for applications where thread engagement quality is critical. Compatible pipe materials include brass, bronze, copper, steel, aluminum, and iron pipe, giving this coupling broad utility across multiple trade applications.

Compatibility

Compatible with brass, bronze, copper, steel, aluminum, and iron pipe systems using 1-inch female NPTF threaded connections with a 1-11-1/2 thread pitch.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before engagement, even with NPTF dry-seal threads, when required by the application or code. Avoid over-tightening, which can crack brass fittings; use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the fitting manufacturer guidelines for thread engagement depth.
