Nibco PCH60434 3/4 Inch Press X Male Adapter

Product Description

The NIBCO PCH60434 is a 3/4-inch press-by-male-thread adapter fitting designed for joining copper tubing to male-threaded connections in gas and compressed air systems. This fitting uses the PressG press-fit connection method, which eliminates open-flame soldering and allows for faster, cleaner installations in both residential and commercial applications. The fitting installs with a standard pressing tool and jaw set. Once properly crimped, a unique N witness mark becomes visible on the fitting, confirming a complete and secure connection. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this product.

The PCH60434 is suited for use in residential and commercial copper tubing systems carrying gas or compressed air. It is also listed for underground installation where applicable. The press-fit design makes it practical in tight spaces or in locations where torch use is restricted or prohibited. This adapter is part of the NIBCO PressG line, which includes a full range of copper and copper alloy fittings, valves, accessories, pressing tools, jaws, and chains.
