Any plumbers out there? Went to get some SS supply line for a sink and saw a couple I didn't know. What is W.C., FIP, SJ mean? I'm guessing W.C. is water closet for the toilet lines but don't know the others.
thanks, Pete

I'm thinking FIP is Female Iron Pipe. Meaning a female adapter from copper to threaded pipe. MIP would be a male adapter.
I concur with you Rich. I think I can recall seeing the FIP thing on the package of some brass flare fittings for a gas range.
