Introducing the New FHTC Lead-Free Brass Range

Our new FHTC lead-free brass range is now available across bibcocks, ferrules and adaptors. Every item is machined from a low-lead alloy and certified for potable water, so it drops straight into compliant drinking-water systems.

What's in the range

The first release covers the fittings teams ask for most, all tested to the same pressure ratings as our standard brass line:

  • Lead-free brass bibcocks in common domestic sizes.
  • Ferrules and saddles for service connections.
  • Male and female adaptors for clean transitions to PEX and CPVC.

Same fit, same ratings — now fully lead-free and certified for potable water.

Certified for potable water

Every part in the range meets current low-lead requirements for drinking-water contact, with documentation available on request for your project submittals.
