Disclosed herein is an improved system and method for connecting a first piece of plumbing (12), such as but not limited to a valve, to a second piece of plumbing (22). The first piece of plumbing has a male threaded fitting (18) formed about an opening (14). The second piece of plumbing has an open end (24) with a connecting member attached. The connecting member (28 has a flange (34), and behind the flange is a flange nut (36) having female threading extending over the flange. The pieces of plumbing are connected as the flange nut screwably engages the male threaded fitting. |
