Value Collection 6SPU1/8 Pipe Coupling 1/8 in 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6SPU1/8 is a 1/8 inch threaded pipe coupling manufactured from 316 stainless steel. It connects two sections of pipe using female national pipe taper (FNPT) threads on both ends, making it a fully internal threaded fitting. Rated to 150 psi and conforming to Schedule 40 dimensions, this coupling is suited for fluid and gas piping systems where corrosion resistance is a priority. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting in applications where standard carbon steel or brass fittings are not suitable for the service environment.

This coupling is used in residential and light commercial piping systems handling water, mild chemicals, or other media compatible with 316 stainless steel. The FNPT x FNPT configuration requires a male-threaded pipe or fitting on each end. Typical install scenarios include instrument lines, small-bore process lines, and corrosion-resistant plumbing tie-ins where a compact, threaded union point is needed.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to corrosion and oxidation
• FNPT x FNPT end connections accept standard male-threaded pipe on both ends
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for low- to medium-pressure service lines
• Schedule 40 dimensions for compatibility with standard pipe sizing
• Compact 1/8 inch fitting size for small-bore and instrument piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/8 inch Schedule 40 threaded pipe systems using FNPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation of threaded pipe fittings should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not overtighten threaded stainless steel fittings, as galling of the threads can occur.
