Tigre Usa Inc 1429-210 Reducing Insert Coupling

Product Description

The TIGRE USA INC 1429-210 is a reducing insert coupling designed to connect polyethylene (PE) pipe in cold water distribution systems. It features a 1-1/2 inch barb inlet and a 3/4 inch barb outlet, allowing a step-down transition between two different pipe diameters. The fitting is made from poly insert construction and is secured to PE pipe using stainless steel clamps. It carries NSF 14 and NSF 16 listings for potable water service and meets ASTM D-2609 standards. Installation is limited to cold water applications only. This fitting is handled by plumbers and irrigation technicians working on residential and light commercial water supply lines.

This coupling is suited for outdoor irrigation systems, agricultural water lines, and rural cold water supply runs where PE polyethylene pipe is the primary distribution material. It is not approved for use inside a dwelling, and must not be used with compressed air or gases. The 1-1/2 inch to 3/4 inch barb configuration makes it a practical choice for branching or reducing line size in a PE pipe network. Each package contains 15 fittings sold as a unit of measure (EA), making it appropriate for contractors stocking for multi-connection jobs.
