Chrome Plated Brass Pipe Fitting, Cross, 1″ NPT

The Merit Brass cross is a chrome-plated brass pipe fitting with female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads for connecting and branching four pieces of pipe. The cross has four female openings to connect and branch male pipes or fittings and it connects with NPT threads, which create tighter seals than straight threads. Made of brass with a high gloss, chrome-plated finish, this cross is easier to clean than regular brass and more corrosion resistant than stainless steel. This fitting meets standards ASTM B-584, ANSI B 1.20.1, and ANSI B 16.15 for quality assurance.

Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).

Merit Brass manufactures pipe nipples following ISO 9001 standards for quality assurance. Family-owned since 1937, the company is based in Cleveland, OH. Merit Brass distributes pipe fittings to the United States and Canada.
