Sharkbite/cash Acme 10YE515060B Gas Connector 60in 3/8in Od

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME 10YE515060B is a 60-inch, 3/8-inch OD flexible gas connector designed to link gas log kits, space heaters, and low-usage gas appliances to a shut-off valve. It features a DuraCoat epoxy coating that resists corrosion, chemical stains from common household products, and UV exposure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. The connector is certified for gas ratings up to 24,900 BTU/h. The kit includes one 60-inch epoxy-coated connector, one 1/2-inch FIP fitting, and one 1/2-inch MIP fitting tapped for 3/8-inch FIP. Plumbers and gas fitters handle this type of connection in residential and light commercial settings.

This connector is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a flexible gas line is needed between a shut-off valve and a gas log set, space heater, or similarly low-demand appliance. The 3/8-inch OD sizing suits lower-BTU appliances rated up to 24,900 BTU/h. The 60-inch length provides enough flexibility for most standard fireplace and space heater rough-in configurations. The DuraCoat epoxy finish allows use in locations exposed to moisture or outdoor conditions where bare corrugated connectors may be prone to early corrosion.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas fitter in accordance with local codes and IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas supply at the main valve before making or breaking any connections. Never use a flexible gas connector to extend a rigid gas line or route it through walls, floors, or ceilings. Verify all connections with a leak-detection solution after restoring gas service.
