A.Y. McDonald 5141-135 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the A.Y. McDonald 5141 CTS x FNPT adapter come in?
The 5141 series no-lead adapter is made in four sizes: 1 inch (5141-135), 1-1/4 inch (5141-156), 1-1/2 inch (5141-169) and 2 inch (5141-182). The size covers both ends, so a 1-1/4 inch adapter takes 1-1/4 inch CTS tubing on one side and 1-1/4 inch female NPT thread on the other.
2) Will the A.Y. McDonald 5141 adapter connect copper tube size PE or poly water service pipe to a threaded fitting?
That is exactly what it is for. One end is CTS (copper tube size), the other is female NPT thread, so it lets you bring a CTS-sized water service line onto any male-threaded fitting, valve nipple or meter connection of the same nominal size.
3) Is this A.Y. McDonald adapter legal for potable drinking water lines?
It is a no-lead adapter, which is how A.Y. McDonald designates its potable-water brass waterworks fittings. The 5141 series is built for drinking water service connections.
4) Do I need a female or male thread on the mating fitting for a 5141 adapter?
Male. The threaded side of the 5141 is female NPT, so the part it screws onto must be male NPT of the same nominal size. If your valve or meter spud is female, you need a male-thread adapter instead, not this one.
5) Can I use a 1-1/4 inch 5141 adapter on 1 inch service line?
No. The 5141 adapters are straight, same-size-through fittings, not reducers. A 1-1/4 inch body (5141-156) takes 1-1/4 inch CTS on one end and 1-1/4 inch FNPT on the other. For a 1 inch line order the 1 inch body, 5141-135, and handle any size change with a separate reducing bushing or coupling.
6) What part number should I give my supplier for a 2 inch CTS to female NPT no-lead adapter?
A.Y. McDonald 5141-182 is the 2 inch adapter in the no-lead CTS x FNPT line. Quote the brand with the number, since 5141 sizes run 5141-135 (1 inch) through 5141-182 (2 inch) and the suffix, not the nominal size, is what identifies the part.
