Whirlpool 69029109094 Union Fitting 1-1/2 in Forged Steel

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL 69029109094 is a 1-1/2 inch forged steel screwed union fitting rated for 3000 lb service. This union is manufactured to A105 carbon steel specifications, making it suitable for high-pressure threaded piping assemblies. The fitting allows two sections of threaded pipe to be joined and disconnected without rotating either pipe section, simplifying maintenance and repair work on pressurized lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of union in industrial, commercial, and mechanical piping systems where periodic disassembly of threaded connections is required.

This union fitting is used in high-pressure threaded piping systems across commercial and industrial installations. Typical applications include steam, water, oil, and gas distribution lines where a forged steel, screwed-end union at the 3000 lb pressure class is specified. The 1-1/2 inch size suits mainline and branch connections in moderate-flow systems. It is appropriate for use where A105 carbon steel material compliance is required by engineering specifications or local code.

Key Features

• 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe size for standard threaded connections
• 3000 lb pressure class rating for high-pressure service
• Forged steel construction to A105 carbon steel material specification
• Screwed-end configuration for threaded pipe installation
• Union design allows pipe disassembly without rotating pipe sections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for 1-1/2 inch forged steel threaded union fittings rated at the 3000 lb pressure class in carbon steel piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as ASME B16.11 and the International Plumbing Code. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any union fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten the union nut, as this can damage the ground joint seat and compromise the seal.
