Value Collection MSC-62147632 Malleable Iron Coupling 1/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-62147632 is a 1/4-inch malleable iron pipe coupling designed for joining threaded pipe sections in gas, liquid, and steam service lines. Constructed from galvanized malleable iron, it carries a Class 150 rating and is pressure-rated at 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited for exposed or moderately demanding environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in both new construction and repair work where a reliable, code-compliant threaded connection is required.

This coupling is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping applications involving water, air, gas, and low-pressure steam distribution. The 1/4-inch size fits standard NPT-threaded pipe and is commonly used in branch lines, service connections, and repair sections. Its malleable iron construction allows it to handle vibration and mechanical stress better than cast iron, making it a practical choice in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and industrial service environments.

Key Features

• 300 psi liquid and gas pressure rating for reliable service in pressurized systems
• 150 psi steam pressure rating suitable for low-pressure steam distribution
• Class 150 malleable iron construction handles mechanical stress and vibration
• Galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in exposed or humid environments
• 1/4-inch fitting size with standard NPT threading for easy integration into existing pipe runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/4-inch NPT-threaded malleable iron piping systems in liquid, gas, and low-pressure steam service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes including the International Plumbing Code and International Fuel Gas Code. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque applied with power tools.
