Midland Industries 781103-08 Brass Coupling 1/2 in

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 781103-08 is a chrome-plated, lead-free red brass coupling designed for connecting two 1/2-inch pipe sections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Both connection ports accept 1/2-14 threaded pipe, and the fitting is rated to a 125 lb pressure class. The chrome plating gives it a clean, finished appearance suited for exposed installations. Lead-free red brass construction meets modern potable water compliance requirements. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a straight, same-size threaded connection is needed with a corrosion-resistant, finished look.

This coupling is used in plumbing supply lines, fixture connections, and other threaded pipe assemblies where a chrome-finished brass fitting is specified. Its equal-end, 1/2-inch configuration makes it a straightforward straight coupling for water supply applications in kitchens, bathrooms, utility areas, and similar settings. The chrome finish also suits installations where the fitting will remain visible after completion.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making any threaded connections. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded fittings, as this can crack brass bodies or distort threads.
