Gas straight connector No name KAT00088 — simple gas pipe coupling, threaded straight fitting

Gas straight connector No name KAT00088 is a threaded straight coupling designed to join gas pipes or compatible fittings in a linear configuration. The fitting provides a mechanical, sealed connection for gas lines in domestic and light commercial installations. Its straightforward design enables a compact inline join between two threaded components where a direct, straight connection is required.

Advantages

The connector's simple straight-through shape minimizes pressure drop at the joint and reduces the number of turns or transitions in the pipeline. Threaded ends allow for a reliable mechanical seal when used with appropriate thread sealant or gas-approved sealing tape. Manufactured for compatibility with common threaded gas piping systems, the coupling is compact and easy to install in confined spaces, offering stable alignment of joined sections.

Suitable for

• Connecting two threaded gas pipes in a straight line
• Joining gas fittings or valves with matching thread sizes
• Domestic gas supply repairs and modifications
• Light commercial gas installations where inline connections are needed

Key specifications

• Type: Threaded straight coupling for gas lines
• Design: Inline, non-bend straight connector
• Connection: Male/Female threaded ends for direct pipe coupling
• Intended use: Gas piping systems in domestic and light commercial environments
• Installation environment: Indoor and sheltered installations where threaded gas fittings are appropriate

How to use

Ensure the gas supply is turned off and the line is depressurized before installing the coupling. Clean the mating threads and apply an appropriate gas-rated thread sealant or approved sealing tape to the male threads according to manufacturer recommendations. Thread the coupling onto the mating component by hand to start, then tighten with an appropriate wrench to achieve a secure mechanical fit without over-torquing. After installation, test the joint for leaks using an approved gas leak detection method and restore the supply only when the connection is verified as gas-tight.

Usage recommendations

Use only in systems and materials compatible with threaded gas fittings; follow local regulations and standards for gas installations. Do not use the connector on systems with incompatible thread types or damaged threads. Periodically inspect threaded joints for corrosion or loosening and retest for leaks after any maintenance or modification to the gas system.
