Value Collection PC101NB-2 Brass Pipe Union 1/8 Inch Fnpt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PC101NB-2 is a 1/8 inch brass pipe union designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial applications. It features female NPT (FNPT) connections on both ends and carries a pressure rating of 1,000 psi. The nickel-plated finish adds corrosion resistance over the base brass construction. This union allows a section of threaded pipe to be disconnected and reconnected without rotating the pipe itself, making it a standard component in service-accessible piping runs. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers.

This union is suited for residential and commercial installations where 1/8 inch threaded pipe connections require a break-apart joint. Common applications include gas supply lines, compressed air systems, water lines, and HVAC equipment connections that fall within the 1,000 psi working pressure limit. The FNPT end connections thread directly onto standard male NPT pipe ends, conforming to common NPT thread standards used across the trade.

Key Features

• 1/8 inch FNPT connections on both ends for standard NPT threaded pipe
• 1,000 psi pressure rating suitable for a wide range of service conditions
• Nickel-plated finish over brass for added corrosion and tarnish resistance
• Union design allows pipe disconnection without rotating the pipe run
• Compact brass body offers durability in both wet and dry service environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/8 inch NPT threaded pipe systems in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before disassembling or installing any union fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before makeup, and tighten using pipe wrenches to achieve a leak-free joint without over-torquing the brass body. Pressure-test the assembly after installation before returning the system to service.
