NOVI, MI – BrassCraft Manufacturing Company, a leading manufacturer of premium quality plumbing supplies for over 65 years, has launched its new line of Coated Stainless Steel Water Heater Connectors. All BrassCraft Manufacturing water heater connectors are certified with ANSI/ASME, and are designed, machined and assembled in the USA .

The exclusive ProCoat® clear coat provides superior corrosion resistance to deterioration from harsh chemicals that can cause pin hole leaks.

Prior to the coating application, the connectors are 100% leak tested to ensure connector performance and reliability.
