This 24-inch water heater flex connector pairs 304 stainless steel corrugated construction with 3/4-inch FIP fittings on both ends, giving extra length for installations where the heater sits farther from the shutoff valve. The corrugated hose flexes to absorb vibration and minor shifting without kinking or weakening the seal, so it holds up better over time than a rigid line. Rated for up to 250 PSI and temperatures up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit, it's built to handle the demands of an active hot water supply, and the lead-free construction keeps water safe for household use. At 0.83 pounds, it's still light enough to position and thread into place without extra tools. This connector works well in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and boiler rooms wherever a 3/4-inch hookup with some extra slack is needed.
