Midland Industries 77418 Copper Street Adapter 1/4 Fpt

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 77418 is a copper street adapter fitting designed to connect two 1/4-inch female pipe thread (FPT) ports. This fitting serves as a transition connector in copper sweat piping systems, allowing plumbers and HVAC technicians to join threaded pipe runs where a standard union or nipple is not practical. Weighing 0.03 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight component suited for tight spaces. The all-copper construction provides corrosion resistance and reliable sealing in both water and refrigerant-adjacent plumbing applications. It ships individually with a minimum order quantity of one.

This adapter is used in residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC installations where 1/4-inch FPT connections are required. Typical applications include connecting threaded copper fittings in water supply lines, refrigeration tubing assemblies, and instrumentation ports. It fits within the copper sweat fittings category and is commonly installed by licensed plumbers and refrigeration technicians working on small-diameter copper pipe systems.
