Built to Schedule 80 specifications, this fitting offers greater wall thickness than Schedule 40, making it suitable for higher-pressure applications. The black finish is standard for gas distribution and general-purpose black iron piping. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of coupling to join two male-threaded pipe ends in a straight run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis female coupling is appropriate for residential and light commercial gas piping, compressed air lines, and general fluid distribution systems that call for NPT threaded black iron fittings. The NPT thread pattern ensures a tapered, pressure-tight connection when properly sealed with approved thread sealant or tape. Schedule 80 fittings are commonly specified where pipe schedules must match on both the fitting and the pipe for pressure ratings to apply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher-pressure service compared to Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threaded end connections for standard tapered pipe thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction with black finish for compatibility with black iron gas and fluid piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch fitting size suits common branch and main line sizes in commercial and residential piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale coupling configuration joins two male-threaded pipe ends in a straight connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 NPT threaded black iron piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant compound or PTFE tape to the male threads before engagement to ensure a leak-free seal. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175303\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BD-13837\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694137344306,"sku":"BD-13837","price":25.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3058ded6989f2f095de2eea6fce07f1d.jpg?v=1788320763","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-bd-13837-black-female-coupling-1-1-2-in-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
