Value Collection 6+B1/4 Stainless Steel Cross Fitting Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6+B1/4 is a stainless steel cross pipe fitting designed for fluid and gas distribution systems that require a four-way branch connection at a single point. The cross configuration allows one inlet to split into three outlets, or serves as a junction point where two pipe runs intersect. Built with NPT (National Pipe Taper) threaded end connections, this fitting seals reliably when properly taped or doped and torqued to spec. It weighs 0.13 pounds and is suited for plumbing, instrumentation, and light industrial piping applications where corrosion resistance is a priority.

This fitting is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing systems, as well as instrumentation and process piping where stainless steel construction is required to resist corrosion from water, mild chemicals, or humid environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install cross fittings during system assembly or when adding branch connections to existing pipe runs. The compact dimensions make it suitable for tight spaces within manifold assemblies or panel-mounted piping layouts.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and chemical-exposure environments
• Cross (four-way) configuration enables branching or junction connections in a single fitting
• NPT threaded ends for standard tapered thread engagement and pressure-rated sealing
• Lightweight at 0.13 pounds, suitable for instrumentation and compact piping assemblies
• Single-piece unit sold individually (package quantity of 1)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation cross fitting for systems using standard NPT threaded pipe connections in stainless steel piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before disassembling any pipe connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant tape or pipe compound rated for the service fluid to all NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as cross fittings are susceptible to cracking if torque is excessive.
