Sharkbite/cash Acme 10YE515024B Gas Connector 24 in

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME 10YE515024B is a 3/8-inch OD epoxy-coated flexible gas connector rated for up to 40,000 BTU/h. It connects most major brands of gas log kits, space heaters, and low-usage gas appliances to a shut-off valve. The connector features DuraCoat Epoxy Coating, which resists corrosion, UV exposure, and chemical staining from common household products. It is approved for both indoor and outdoor installation. Each package includes one 24-inch connector, one 1/2-inch FIP fitting, and one 1/2-inch MIP fitting tapped 3/8-inch FIP. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters typically handle this type of connection in residential settings.

This connector is suited for residential applications where low-usage gas appliances require a flexible, code-compliant connection to a gas shut-off valve. Typical installations include gas log inserts, freestanding gas space heaters, and similar low-demand appliances. The 24-inch length and 3/8-inch OD sizing make it appropriate for tight hearth and alcove installations where rigid pipe is not practical. The included FIP and MIP fittings allow direct connection without additional adapters in most standard configurations.
