Midwest Fasteners Brass Compression MIP/FIP Pipe Fitting
The Midwest Fasteners Brass Compression Pipe Fitting family joins tubing to threaded iron pipe connections with a reliable compression seal, machined from solid brass for corrosion resistance in water supply lines, appliance connections, and general plumbing runs. This family spans a full range of OD-to-pipe-thread sizes - from 1/4" OD x 1/8MIP up through 7/8" OD x 3/4MIP - in both compression-to-MIP (male iron pipe) and compression-to-FIP (female iron pipe) configurations, so techs and installers can match the exact size a job calls for without waiting on a supply house. Each connector is sold individually, letting plumbing and maintenance pros stock precisely the quantity and size they need.
