Nibco PCH600DS34 3/4 Inch Press X Press Coupling

Product Description

The NIBCO PCH600DS34 is a 3/4 inch press x press coupling designed for joining copper tubing without soldering, brazing, or open flame. It uses a press-fit connection method that creates a watertight seal when crimped with a compatible pressing tool. A unique witness mark becomes visible after a proper crimp, giving installers a quick visual confirmation that the joint is complete. This fitting is part of the NIBCO PressG product line and is suited for residential and commercial plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors are the primary installers.

The PCH600DS34 is approved for use in potable water systems, hydronic heating, compressed air lines, and natural gas distribution piping in both residential and commercial settings. It can also be installed underground, making it a versatile choice for a range of piping scenarios where soldered joints are impractical or restricted. The press x press end configuration means both ends accept standard copper tubing for a straight coupling connection.
