- Lead-free brass construction resists rust and corrosion
- Reduces 5/8" compression to 1/2" MIP thread
- Suitable for commercial and residential piping systems
- California Proposition 65 warning for lead exposure
5/8" COMP x 1/2" MIP Reducing Adapter
This lead-free brass adapter joins 5/8 inch compression piping to 1/2 inch male iron pipe threads. It creates a secure, leak-free bond suitable for commercial and residential compressed-air or vacuum systems. The fitting resists rust and corrosion across a range of applications.
Replaces mismatched thread connections
Use this adapter when existing piping combines compression and MIP ends that cannot join directly. The jump is worth it whenever a leak-free transition between these two thread types is required without brazing or additional fittings. It simplifies installation in mixed piping networks.
Limited to stated thread standards
The adapter only fits 5/8 inch compression and 1/2 inch MIP specifications; other diameters or thread forms will not seal. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains lead. Wash hands after handling to minimise exposure.

Questions about this item
What pipe sizes does the 5/8" COMP x 1/2" MIP reducing adapter connect?
It joins a 5/8-inch compression tube to a 1/2-inch male iron pipe thread, creating a secure compression-to-male bond that prevents water leakage.
How is the compression side sealed during installation?
Slide the nut and ferrule onto the tube, insert the tube fully into the body, then tighten the nut by hand plus one to two wrench turns; the common error is over-tightening, which distorts the ferrule and causes leaks.
Will the lead-free brass body need replacement due to corrosion?
The solid lead-free brass construction resists rust and corrosion in commercial and residential systems, so the adapter itself does not require scheduled replacement; inspect joints periodically and retighten only if a leak appears.
