The Union 1” (G.I.) Galvanized Iron fitting is a specialized plumbing connector designed to join two sections of threaded pipes in a way that allows easy assembly and disassembly. Unlike permanent fittings, a union can be unscrewed, making it highly useful in systems that require regular maintenance, repair, or replacement of pipe sections.
Manufactured from galvanized iron (G.I.), this fitting is coated with zinc to protect it from rust, corrosion, and water damage, ensuring long-term durability in both indoor and outdoor environments.
The 1-inch size is commonly used in domestic water supply systems, commercial plumbing lines, irrigation systems, and light industrial piping networks, where moderate to high water flow is required.
The union consists of three main parts that tightly compress together to form a secure, leak-proof seal when properly tightened. This makes it highly reliable for systems that must remain pressure-resistant while still being serviceable.
It is widely used by plumbers, technicians, and engineers because it simplifies maintenance without needing to cut or replace long sections of piping.
