Nibco H026000 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What do the Ftg x F ends on the Nibco 903-2 DWV adapter actually connect to?
The 903-2 is a fitting (street) solder end on one side and a female NPT thread on the other. The street end is sized to slip inside the socket of another copper DWV fitting rather than over the tube, and the threaded side takes a male pipe thread. So it's the piece you use where a soldered copper DWV run has to land on a threaded connection.
2) What size pipe does the Nibco 903-2 copper female adapter fit?
It's a 1-1/4 inch straight-size adapter, so the street end mates to 1-1/4 inch copper DWV and the thread is 1-1/4 inch female NPT. Straight size means there is no reduction between the two ends.
3) Can I use the Nibco 903-2 on a pressure water line, or is it drainage only?
Drainage only. The 903-2 is a DWV fitting, built for drain, waste and vent service, with material and workmanship per ASME B16.29, which is the drainage copper fitting standard. For supply piping use a pressure-rated copper adapter instead.
4) Is a street (Ftg) adapter the right choice, or do I want a regular C x F female adapter?
Pick by what the adapter is going into. The 903-2 has a fitting end that plugs directly into the cup of another DWV fitting, which saves you a stub of tube and a joint when you're coming straight off an elbow or tee. If you're soldering onto a length of copper tube instead, you want a C (cup) x female adapter, which slips over the tube.
5) What is the manufacturer part number for the 1-1/4 inch Nibco 903-2 female adapter?
Nibco part number H026000 covers the 1-1/4 inch 903-2, Ftg x F wrot copper DWV adapter. That's the number to quote when you need the street-end version rather than the cup-end 903.
6) What is the Nibco 903-2 DWV adapter made of?
Wrot copper, ASTM B75 alloy C12200, and dezincification resistant. That alloy is the standard drawn copper used for DWV fittings, and it takes lead-free solder the same as the tube it joins.
7) Is the Nibco 903-2 adapter acceptable for commercial work or is it residential grade?
Both. It's catalogued for commercial and residential plumbing systems, so the same part covers a multi-family riser, a school restroom group, or a single-family remodel. That's useful if you're standardizing DWV fittings across a portfolio.
8) Do I need to do anything special when soldering the Nibco 903-2 with the threads made up?
Standard practice is to solder the copper joint before threading the connection in, so heat isn't carried into a made-up thread or any gasket on the mating part. Nibco publishes copper fitting installation instructions with the joint prep and heating steps, and they're linked from the product information.
