Midwest Fasteners Solid Brass FIP Male Connector Fitting
The Midwest Fasteners Solid Brass FIP Male Connector Fitting is a general-purpose brass fitting built for joining tubing and pipe runs where a solid, corrosion-resistant brass connection is required. Machined from solid brass for long service life in plumbing and general fitting applications, this connector line is available across six FIP x tube size combinations — 1/4FIP x 1/8, 1/4FIP x 1/4, 3/16FIP x 1/8, 3/8FIP x 1/4, 5/16FIP x 1/8, and 5/16FIP x 1/4 — so maintenance techs, fabricators and plumbers can select the exact FIP x tube size their job calls for without guessing. Each connector is sold individually and is ready to install into compatible female-threaded (FIP) fittings, valves, appliances or tubing systems.
