Boshart FA No-Lead Bronze Female Insert Adapter

The Boshart FA Female Insert Adapter is a no-lead bronze fitting engineered for connecting poly pipe to female-threaded pipe, valves, or fixtures in rough-in water service applications. This family is available in trade sizes ranging from 3/4" through 1-1/4" (including 3/4", 1", and 1-1/4"), covering the common poly pipe rough-in runs used across residential, agricultural, and irrigation water systems. Unlike compression fittings meant for hose connections, this adapter is designed specifically for poly pipe applications where a durable, threaded transition point is required behind the wall or below grade. The bronze construction provides the corrosion resistance and strength that contractors and plumbers expect from insert-style fittings used in well systems, irrigation, and potable water rough-in work.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: Offered across the range of 3/4", 1", and 1-1/4" to fit common poly pipe rough-in runs.
  • Durable Construction: Manufactured from bronze insert fitting material for long-term corrosion resistance in below-grade and wet-service poly pipe installations.
  • Female Insert Adapter Configuration: Provides a female-threaded connection point for transitioning poly pipe to threaded valves, pumps, or fixtures.
  • Smooth Sweep Channel Design: Engineered with a smooth interior flow path to minimize friction loss and support the highest possible flow rates and pumping efficiency.
  • No-Lead Compliant: Manufactured to no-lead specifications for use in potable water rough-in applications.
  • Poly Pipe Application: Designed specifically for use with poly pipe systems and is not intended for hose connections.
  • Packaging: Supplied 10 pieces per package across the size range, making it a practical stock item for plumbing contractors and well/irrigation installers who need volume on hand for rough-in runs.

Boshart FA-075NL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Boshart FA insert adapter to connect poly pipe to a threaded well pump or valve?
That's exactly what the FA female insert adapter is built for. The barbed insert end goes into poly pipe and is secured with a clamp, and the other end gives you a female pipe thread you can run into a pump discharge, a valve, or a fixture nipple. It's a poly pipe fitting, not a hose fitting, so don't use it on garden hose thread.
2) Is the Boshart FA bronze insert adapter safe for potable water?
It's made to no-lead specifications in bronze for potable water rough-in, which is why the NL suffix is on every part number (FA-075NL, FA-100NL, FA-125NL). Boshart still carries a Prop 65 lead warning on the fitting, which is standard for cast copper alloy parts and does not change the no-lead rating.
3) What sizes does the Boshart FA no-lead bronze female insert adapter come in?
Three trade sizes: 3/4 inch (FA-075NL), 1 inch (FA-100NL) and 1-1/4 inch (FA-125NL). Those cover the usual poly rough-in runs on residential wells and irrigation laterals. The size is the nominal poly pipe size and the female thread matches it.
4) Do I have to buy a full pack of these insert adapters or can I get one?
They are supplied 10 pieces per package in every size. That's the way plumbing and well contractors normally stock them, since a rough-in run rarely uses just one transition.
5) Why choose bronze insert fittings over plastic ones for a buried poly line?
Bronze holds up better than plastic where the fitting is clamped and torqued below grade, and it takes a threaded connection without the risk of splitting that nylon insert fittings have. For a well or irrigation line you cannot get back to easily, that corrosion resistance and strength is the trade-off you are paying for.
6) What else do I need to install a Boshart FA insert adapter on poly pipe?
The adapter itself is just the fitting. You supply the stainless clamps for the insert end, two per joint on well and irrigation work is common practice, plus thread sealant or PTFE tape on the female thread side. Nothing is included with the fitting beyond the 10-piece pack.
7) Can I use the Boshart FA female insert adapter on copper or PEX instead of poly?
No. The insert end is barbed for poly pipe and is clamped, so it will not seal on copper tube, and it isn't a PEX fitting. If you are transitioning to copper or PEX, use a fitting made for that material and thread into the female end of the adapter only if the poly run is on the other side.
8) Will this adapter restrict flow on a pump line?
The FA insert adapter uses a smooth sweep flow channel through the body to keep friction loss down, which matters on a pump-fed line where every foot of head counts. It's the same design across the 3/4 inch through 1-1/4 inch range.
