Brass coupling 1/2" kfa² 944-700-15

Brass coupling 1/2" kfa² 944-700-15 is a threaded plumbing fitting designed to join two 1/2-inch pipes or hose connectors in water supply systems. Manufactured from brass, the coupling provides a corrosion-resistant mechanical connection intended for use in domestic and commercial installations where reliable, leak-resistant joins are required under normal water supply conditions.

Advantages

The brass construction offers good resistance to corrosion and wear while maintaining dimensional stability for threaded connections. Its standard 1/2-inch thread size ensures compatibility with common plumbing fixtures and hose fittings. The compact, solid design enables straightforward installation with conventional hand or wrench tools and supports long service life when used within normal pressure and temperature ranges for potable water systems.

Suitable for

• Joining 1/2-inch water supply pipes
• Connecting hoses or fixtures with 1/2-inch threaded ends
• Repairs and replacements in domestic plumbing systems
• Commercial plumbing applications with standard 1/2-inch fittings

Key specifications

• Material: brass
• Connection type: threaded coupling
• Thread size: 1/2 inch
• Application: water supply and plumbing systems
• Corrosion resistance: suitable for normal potable water conditions

How to use

Before installation, ensure connected pipes or fittings are clean and free of debris. Apply appropriate thread sealant or plumber’s tape to the male threads if required by the installation standards in your region. Thread the coupling onto the mating part by hand until it is finger-tight, then use a suitable wrench to tighten further until a secure, leak-resistant connection is achieved; avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to threads. Inspect the joint for leaks after pressurizing the system and re-tighten slightly if necessary.

Usage recommendations

Use the coupling only within the pressure and temperature limits applicable to standard brass fittings in potable water systems. For aggressive fluids, high-temperature applications, or non-water media, confirm material compatibility before use. When installing in concealed or buried locations, follow local plumbing codes and consider additional protective measures against galvanic corrosion.
