Ts Brass b-0413-m 3/8 Inch Npt Swivel Rigid Adapter

Product Description

The TS BRASS b-0413-m is a threaded pipe adapter designed to connect swivel and rigid fittings at a 3/8 inch NPT interface. This type of adapter is commonly used in plumbing and light commercial applications where a fixed pipe run needs to transition to a swivel connection, allowing for positional adjustment during installation or equipment hookup. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when routing supply lines to fixtures, appliances, or service equipment that require rotational alignment before final tightening.

This adapter suits residential and light commercial plumbing installations where 3/8 inch NPT threaded connections are standard. Typical use cases include supply line connections at faucets, valves, and appliance inlets where a swivel-to-rigid transition simplifies rough-in alignment. It is well suited for tight or awkward installation spaces where rigid connections alone make alignment difficult.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch NPT thread size for standard pipe compatibility
• Swivel-to-rigid design allows positional adjustment before final seating
• Compact adapter form factor fits into confined installation spaces
• Threaded connection type compatible with standard NPT fittings and tools

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit adapter for plumbing systems using 3/8 inch NPT threaded connections in residential and light commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe compound to male NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or distort the swivel seat.
