Customer Reviews for Everbilt 1/2 in. x 1/2 in. FIP Brass Coupling

Took abit to figure out but needed this to hook up my new NG grill

Fitting fits my application for my gas bbq to hook up to my natural gas quick disconnect. Of course I had to buy a 3/8” nipple too along with this fitting. Item of this reducing coupling fitting was expensive, almost 10.00 for a little piece of brass.

I hand tightened this with a small wrench to attach a threaded hose bib to a threaded copper pipe. I used plumbers tape. 9 months later, I noticed the paint on the wall had bubbled. It didn't leak the weeks after installing it. Luckily, I had put in a small access panel. I'm returning this garbage asap. This isn't the first time an Everbilt product has failed. Never again purchasing this brand.

Very good and perfect fit

These heavier duty couplings are the answer for a higher preasure application, (in this case), a changeover from a Chinesium to NPT compressor head application. A higher torque load for these flare fittings is possible.

I used one of these to connect a hose bib to a male NPT fitting. I didn't tighten them all that hard, but in a few months, the Everbilt fitting cracked and started leaking into my daylight basement. Luckily, we noticed it before more than a few gallons of water leaked into the basement. For my sort of use, I'd purchase a stainless steel or thicker walled fitting.

Easy to set up and exactly fitting the job.

These are thin walled and the heat from my water heater was enough to crack it within one day of use. I don't care about the part lost as much as I care about the water leak it caused. Home depot should replace these with a thicker part.

I've had this for only a week but it fit nicely, the threads were very smooth.

This product works as expected.

Solid brass -not plated pewter junk which corrodes.

Garbage, was barely tightened and snapped down the entire length of one side. It's so lightweight it's hard to believe it's actually brass and not aluminum or some other trash alloy.
