Watts 2-1/2 Bronze Dielectric Flange Pipe Fitting

Description:

The Watts 2-1/2" Bronze Dielectric Flange Pipe Fitting is a corrosion-resistant piping connection designed to electrically isolate dissimilar metals in plumbing, HVAC, and hydronic piping systems. Constructed with a bronze flange body, insulating gasket, sleeve, and bolt isolation components, the fitting helps prevent galvanic corrosion that can occur when copper and steel piping systems are connected. Featuring a solder connection on one side and a 4-bolt Class 125 flange on the other, this dielectric flange provides a secure, leak-resistant transition while extending system life and reducing maintenance requirements in commercial and industrial installations.

Applications:

The Watts 2-1/2" Bronze Dielectric Flange Pipe Fitting is commonly used in HVAC systems, chilled water systems, hot water heating systems, commercial plumbing installations, hydronic piping networks, boiler systems, cooling towers, industrial process piping, municipal water systems, and mechanical room applications where copper piping must be connected to steel or cast iron equipment while preventing galvanic corrosion and extending equipment service life.
