3/4 Inch Carbon Steel 403G Gas Press Adapter – Press x Male Thread

The 3/4 inch Carbon Steel 403G Gas Press Adapter is engineered for press-to-thread transitions in gas distribution systems. Designed for secure connections under pressure, this adapter connects carbon steel piping to threaded gas system components, offering durability and precision for high-performance applications.

Product Overview

• Material: Carbon steel, zinc-plated per industry standard to resist corrosion
• Connection: Press (gas-compatible) x Male NPT
• Size: 3/4 inch nominal
• Application: Natural gas and LP gas systems
• Standard: Designed in accordance with ASTM A420 and ASME B16.3 where applicable

Performance Features

• Press Technology: Provides flame-free, mechanical connections that reduce installation time on rigid gas lines
• Leak Detection O-Ring: EPDM sealing element designed for use with fuel gases; visual confirmation in unpressed state
• System Pressure: Suitable for working pressures up to 125 psi in gas applications
• Operating Temperature: -40°F to 180°F, dependent on system media and application

Installation Notes

This adapter is intended for use with compatible press tools equipped with appropriate jaws. Deburring and proper pipe prep are critical for gas seal integrity. Always confirm crimp integrity using a manufacturer-specified pressing profile. Not suitable for potable water or steam systems.

Common Applications

Typically used in residential, commercial, and light industrial gas systems. Ideal for retrofit projects and installations where welding or threading is impractical or prohibited by code. Compatible with carbon steel piping used for heating and appliance gas supply lines.

Technical Considerations

• Fitting Design: One-piece body with factory-installed sealing element
• Compliance: Meets CSA LC-4 for press-connect gas fittings
• Torque Requirements: NPT thread side to be installed per ANSI B1.20.1 torque guidelines

This 3/4 inch Carbon Steel 403G Gas Press Adapter is a field-proven solution for professionals seeking fast, safe, and code-compliant gas line connections. With a precision-machined press end and robust male NPT thread, it ensures a secure fit in demanding conditions.
