Coupling Construction
A threaded coupling provides female-threaded connections at both ends for joining two compatible male-threaded pipes, nipples, or fittings.
The straight-through configuration allows the piping run to continue in line without changing direction.
Couplings are commonly used for extending pipe runs, joining two pipe sections, and making threaded piping connections in plumbing, mechanical, and industrial systems.
Why Choose a Brass Coupling?
Straight Pipe Connection
- Joins two male-threaded piping components
- Maintains a straight piping run
- Female threaded connection on both ends
- Useful for extending threaded pipe
- Simple in-line fitting configuration
Threaded Brass Construction
- Brass fitting body
- Leaded material
- Female x female threaded design
- Suitable for compatible piping applications
- Manufacturer documentation provided below
Coupling vs. Reducing Coupling
Standard Coupling
- Typically uses the same nominal size on both ends
- Joins two compatible male-threaded components
- Maintains a straight piping run
- Used for same-size connections
- This product configuration
Reducing Coupling
- Uses different nominal sizes at each end
- Joins two different pipe sizes
- Provides a straight-line size transition
- Eliminates the need for a separate reducer in some layouts
- Different configuration from a standard coupling
Common Applications
Plumbing & Mechanical Piping
- Threaded piping systems
- Pipe extensions
- Joining pipe nipples
- Equipment connections
- General plumbing assemblies
Industrial & General Service
- Mechanical piping installations
- Maintenance and repair work
- Compatible process piping
- Utility piping
- Applications requiring a straight threaded connection
Installation & Selection Guidance
- Confirm the required nominal coupling size before ordering.
- Verify female thread compatibility with both mating male-threaded components.
- Confirm both connected components use the same nominal size for a standard coupling.
- Use an appropriate thread sealant for the system media, pressure, and temperature.
- Apply thread sealant according to the sealant manufacturer's instructions.
- Use appropriate wrenching surfaces during installation.
- Avoid over-tightening the coupling.
- Support connected piping as required to prevent excessive load on the fitting.
- Confirm pressure, temperature, and media compatibility before use.
- Verify that leaded brass is permitted for the intended application.
- Installation should comply with applicable piping, plumbing, and project requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a brass coupling used for?
A brass coupling is used to join two compatible male-threaded pipes, nipples, or fittings in a straight piping run.
What type of connections does this coupling use?
This coupling uses female threaded connections on both ends.
Does a coupling change pipe direction?
No. A standard coupling provides a straight in-line connection between two piping components.
What is the difference between a coupling and a reducing coupling?
A standard coupling typically connects the same nominal size on both ends. A reducing coupling connects two different nominal pipe sizes.
What material is this fitting?
The supplied product information identifies this fitting as leaded brass.
What pressure class is this fitting?
The product is identified as a 125# fitting.
Is this fitting lead free?
No. The supplied product information identifies this fitting as leaded.
