Product Details
The Merit chrome plated brass pipe fitting is a 1/8 coupling NPT female designed for low-pressure applications involving water, oil, and gas (W.O.G.). With pressure ratings of 125 PSI for steam and 200 PSI for W.O.G., these fittings comply with ANSI B 1.20.1 and ANSI B 16.15 standards. They provide superior corrosion resistance, and their relative softness facilitates easy installation and ensures a tight seal. Additionally, chrome plated brass fittings are preferred for their ease of cleaning, resistance to dirt and bacteria, and ability to maintain a shiny finish. However, it is important to note that these fittings contain lead and are prohibited by federal law for use in potable water installations in the U.S.A. and its territories.
