Aqualine SCU-1-LF Brass Compression Coupling 0.5 Inch Cts

Product Description

The AQUALINE SCU-1-LF is a lead-free brass compression coupling designed for joining copper tubing system (CTS) runs in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. Built to a 0.5-inch CTS size, this coupling connects two sections of copper or compatible plastic tubing without soldering, making it a reliable choice for repair and new-work applications alike. Its brass construction provides corrosion resistance suited to potable water systems. At 0.34 pounds, the fitting is compact and easy to handle in tight spaces. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this type of coupling for water supply line work across a range of above-ground and in-wall configurations.

This compression coupling is suited for residential water supply systems where a no-solder connection is required or preferred. It is commonly used in service calls involving damaged tubing sections, fixture supply line repairs, or additions to existing copper runs. The lead-free designation makes it appropriate for potable water applications in jurisdictions that enforce lead-free plumbing product requirements, including installations governed by state and local plumbing codes aligned with federal safe drinking water standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line fully before cutting or disassembling any tubing. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and deburred before seating them into the compression fitting to achieve a proper seal. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as excessive force can deform the ferrule and cause leaks.
