Union for Potable Water Systems
This NIBCO 733-LF sweat fitting union joins two 2-inch copper tubes in potable water installations. The straight union design uses cup connections on both ends for secure soldered joints. Low-lead bronze construction meets NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF/ANSI 372 standards for drinking water safety.
Upgrading from Standard Brass Unions
The low-lead bronze body replaces traditional brass fittings where lead-free compliance is required by code. The jump is worth it when local regulations mandate NSF/ANSI 372 certification for potable water lines. ASME B16.18 compliance ensures dimensional interchangeability with existing copper piping systems.
Pressure and Temperature Headroom
Rated for 291 psi maximum operating pressure at 200 degrees Fahrenheit, this union handles typical residential and commercial water supply demands. The bronze material provides corrosion resistance for continuous potable water service. ISO 9001 manufacturing standards support consistent quality across installations.
