Anderson Metals Corp 738101-12 Brass Tee 3/4 Inches

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 738101-12 is a 3/4-inch rough brass tee fitting designed for use in potable water and general plumbing distribution systems. Manufactured in a rough brass finish, this tee meets the lead-free requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it compliant for use in systems that carry drinking water. It is a bulk-packaged fitting sold in a package quantity of five units, suited for plumbers and pipe fitters who need multiple fittings for a single job or ongoing service work. The tee configuration allows a branch connection off a main run, a fundamental function in residential and light commercial plumbing rough-in work.

This fitting is appropriate for residential and commercial potable water supply lines, hydronic distribution branch points, and general plumbing rough-in applications where a 3/4-inch branch takeoff is required. Its lead-free compliance makes it the correct choice wherever local codes mandate lead-free materials in water supply piping, which now covers most jurisdictions under federal law. Licensed plumbers performing new construction or remodel rough-in work will find this fitting suitable for standard copper or compatible piping systems at this size.

Key Features

• Lead-free compliant per Public Law 111-380, suitable for potable water applications
• 3/4-inch tee configuration for branch connections off main supply runs
• Rough brass construction for durability in plumbing system environments
• Bulk packaging of 5 units per package for job-site efficiency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for 3/4-inch plumbing systems requiring a lead-free brass tee at branch connection points.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and any applicable local amendments. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into existing piping. Ensure mating pipe ends are clean, deburred, and properly prepared for the joining method in use. Do not overtighten threaded connections; follow standard practices for thread sealant or tape application on NPT fittings.
