The 1-1/4" Brass AutoFlare Coupling is designed for secure joining of corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST) in gas distribution applications. This fitting utilizes AutoFlare® technology to ensure a metal-to-metal seal without the need for gaskets, delivering a pressure-tight connection suitable for both residential and commercial gas systems.
This fitting is typically used in gas distribution piping systems, providing a safe transition or continuation between lengths of 1-1/4" CSST. It is suitable for both interior and exterior gas line installations in systems governed by national fuel gas codes, including new construction and retrofit applications.
Proper installation requires the use of a tubing cutter to square the end of the CSST, followed by use of the split-ring ferrule and nut system to form the flare as the nut is torqued onto the body. It is critical that all installations be performed in accordance with manufacturer instructions and local code requirements. Pressure testing after installation is required to confirm seal integrity.
Unlike traditional flare fittings, AutoFlare® components integrate the flaring function into the tightening process, significantly reducing installation time while maintaining mechanical reliability. This innovation helps ensure consistent performance across job sites and reduces potential error from improper flare tools.
The 1-1/4" Brass AutoFlare Coupling offers robust, compliant connections in high-demand gas distribution systems. Its design simplifies installation without sacrificing safety, making it an essential component for professional gas fitters handling CSST installations to code.
