This type of multi-port adapter is used to connect flexible gas connectors to appliance valves or supply lines where the thread and flare specifications do not match directly. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters install this fitting during appliance hookup or line conversion work on natural gas and propane systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial gas appliance installations where flexible stainless steel gas connectors terminate in a 5\/8 inch OD flare and the appliance or valve inlet calls for a 1\/2 inch male thread with an auxiliary 3\/8 inch FIP tapped port. It is commonly encountered during range, dryer, or water heater connections where a branch or secondary gas takeoff is required at the same fitting location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree-way adapter combines 5\/8 inch OD flare, 1\/2 inch male, and 3\/8 inch FIP in one fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapped 3\/8 inch FIP port allows a secondary gas connection or branch line without additional fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for use with flexible gas connectors on natural gas and propane appliances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact single-body construction reduces potential leak points versus multi-fitting assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement or installation adapter for gas connector applications requiring a 5\/8 inch OD flare inlet mated to a 1\/2 inch male thread outlet with a tapped 3\/8 inch FIP port.
