Eastman 1/2 in x3/8 in x36 in Flex Line

Description

Eastman ½”x⅜”x36″ Flex Line The Eastman flexible faucet connector (Flex line) provides the necessary reach for offset installations. Manufacturers utilize high-quality braided stainless steel to ensure the product resists corrosion and high-pressure bursts. Consequently, you can achieve a durable and flexible connection even in the tightest under-sink spaces. Key Benefits Universal Connection Sizes: This line features a 3/8″ Female Compression end and a 1/2″ Female Iron Pipe (FIP) end; hence, it fits most standard supply valves and faucet inlets. Reinforced Braided Exterior: The stainless steel braid protects the internal core; therefore, the line remains resistant to kinking and external damage. Professional Grade Sealing: High-quality washers at both ends ensure a watertight seal; as a result, you prevent annoying drips and water damage at connection points. Reliable Pressure Resistance: Engineers designed this line for performance; likewise, it maintains high-pressure stability over years of continuous use. Technical Specifications Product Type: Flexible Faucet Supply Line Length: 36″ (91.44 cm) Connection 1: 3/8″ OD Female Compression Connection 2: 1/2″ Female Iron Pipe (FIP) Exterior Material: Braided Stainless Steel Brand: Eastman Perfect For Bathroom Vanities: This connector works perfectly for linking new faucets to the main water supply. Kitchen Sink Installations: Similarly, you can use this for supply connections to modern high-arc kitchen faucets. Plumbing Renovations: Homeowners choose this when replacing old, corroded, or rigid supply lines. Commercial Fixture Upgrades: Therefore, it remains a reliable choice for high-traffic facilities requiring standard 3/8″ x 1/2″ fittings. Application Instructions Preparation: First, shut off the main water supply and place a bucket under the workspace to catch residual water. Fixture Connection: Next, hand-tighten the 1/2″ FIP end of the flex line onto the faucet’s water inlet shank. Valve Connection: Subsequently, hand-tighten the 3/8″ compression end onto your shut-off supply valve. Final Tightening: Use a wrench to give both connections an additional quarter-turn; however, do not over-tighten as this might damage the washers. Testing: Finally, slowly turn the water back on and inspect both ends for any signs of leaks. Pro Tips Avoid Sharp Kinks: Although the line offers great flexibility, keep your bends gradual; specifically, sharp kinks can restrict water flow over time. Thread Alignment: Always start the threads by hand to ensure they align correctly; otherwise, you risk cross-threading and damaging the fittings. Periodic Maintenance: Check your supply lines annually for moisture or wear; in addition, replace them if you notice any fraying in the stainless steel braid.
