Value Collection 736009 Malleable Iron Pipe Coupling 3 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 736009 is a 3-inch malleable iron pipe coupling designed to join two sections of pipe in a straight run. Malleable iron construction provides the durability and ductility needed to handle both liquid and gas service at up to 300 psi, and steam service at up to 150 psi. This Class 150 fitting meets standard pressure ratings for common piping systems and is a practical choice for mechanical, plumbing, and industrial piping installations. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors typically specify this type of coupling for system assembly and repair.

This coupling is suited for residential and commercial piping applications where a threaded, straight-run connection is required. Typical uses include water supply lines, gas distribution piping, compressed air systems, and steam piping within its rated pressure limits. The 3-inch fitting size serves larger-diameter main runs commonly found in commercial mechanical rooms, industrial process lines, and building utility systems. Plumbers and pipefitters handling high-volume or main-line installations will find this size appropriate for trunk line work.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction resists cracking under mechanical stress and temperature cycling
• Rated to 300 psi for liquid and gas service
• Rated to 150 psi for steam service
• Class 150 fitting conforming to standard threaded pipe coupling specifications
• 3-inch fitting size for larger-diameter main line piping runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch threaded pipe systems in liquid, gas, and steam service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Follow applicable local codes, including IPC and IFGC requirements, when installing fittings on potable water or gas lines.
