1" Bronze Pack Joint Union – Lead-Free Connection for CTS Water Service Lines

The 1 inch bronze pack joint union is engineered for joining copper tube-sized (CTS) piping systems in municipal and residential water supply applications. It allows for disconnection and reconnection without cutting the line, making it ideal for maintenance, retrofitting, and service line transitions.

Key Applications

This union is commonly used for joining polyethylene tubing or copper service pipe to a meter yoke, curb stop, or other plumbing component. The pack joint design uses a compression-style nut and gasket to provide a secure, leak-resistant seal without soldering or thread compound.

Advantages for Contractors

• Serviceability: Allows repeated disassembly for maintenance without cutting pipe.
• Versatile Compatibility: Compatible with copper tubing, PE, and other CTS-rated materials.
• Corrosion Resistance: Cast bronze body ensures long-term durability in buried or exposed environments.
• Lead-Free Certified: Fully compliant with Safe Drinking Water Act regulations for potable systems.

Installation Considerations

Proper installation requires clean, properly sized CTS tubing. Insert the pipe to the depth stop, tighten the compression nut per manufacturer torque specs, and verify a secure seal. Always test the system under pressure before backfilling or completing enclosure.

Note:

This union is not suitable for threaded connections or PVC/CPVC systems. Use only with appropriately rated CTS piping for optimal performance and code compliance.
