The Apollo ExpansionPEX 3/4 in. Brass PEX-A Barb x 3/4 in. FNPT x 18 in. Corrugated Stainless Steel Water Heater Connector was designed for the fast and simple installation of hot and cold water lines to water heaters. After applying pipe thread tape to the MNPT nipples on your water heater, thread the FNPT end of the water heater connector onto the tank and tighten with pliers. Then simply make the final connection to Apollo ExpansionPEX pipe or comparable cold expansion tubing using Apollo ExpansionPEX sleeves or comparable expansion-type sleeve or ring (all sold separately) and your water heater is connected.
