This fitting features a 2-11-1\/2 female straight thread connection and a thickness of 0.53 inches, making it a reliable mechanical fastener for securing threaded pipe fittings and preventing loosening under vibration or system pressure. The locknut is rated for a temperature range of -20 to 350 degrees F, suiting it for a broad range of piping installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in gas, steam, and fluid distribution systems where a secure, leak-resistant connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 65708 is appropriate for residential and commercial black iron pipe systems, including natural gas distribution, steam lines, and other low-to-medium pressure fluid piping applications where 150-pound malleable iron fittings are specified. Its black finish is standard for gas piping installations and is compatible with the broader 150-pound malleable iron fitting system. The female straight thread profile allows straightforward assembly onto standard NPT-threaded pipe without special tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch nominal size for use with standard black iron pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150 psi pressure rating suitable for gas, steam, and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction provides impact resistance and durability under thermal cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature rated from -20 to 350 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-11-1\/2 female straight thread connection for standard NPT assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack finish consistent with 150-pound malleable iron gas piping fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard component within 150-pound black malleable iron pipe fitting systems for residential and commercial piping applications.\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 gas codes, including the IPC and IFGC. Shut off all system pressure and depressurize the line before disassembly or installation of any fitting. Apply thread sealant appropriate for the service medium to all threaded connections. Do not over-tighten; hand-tighten and use a pipe wrench to achieve a secure, leak-free fit without stressing the fitting body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-11-1\/2 female straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -20 to 350 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.53 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.95 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.51 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 65708\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67952536748338,"sku":"65708","price":23.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3849b4864805300fb3c4219ce9d68f50.jpg?v=1791750917","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-65708-hex-locknut-2-in-malleable-iron-black","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
