Cerro Flow Products Llc 1041 Type M Hard Copper Tube

Product Description

The CERRO FLOW PRODUCTS LLC 1041 is a Type M hard copper tube rated for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic heating systems. It measures 0.5 inches in inner diameter and comes in 10-foot straight lengths. Type M copper is a thinner-walled grade than Type K or L, making it well suited for interior domestic water distribution where code permits its use. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this tube using standard sweat-solder or press-fit fittings. Each unit ships as a single 10-foot length, sold in packages of 25.

Type M hard copper tube is widely used in residential water supply lines, baseboard hydronic heating loops, and light commercial plumbing rough-in work. The rigid straight-length format is preferred for exposed runs in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and behind walls where a clean, supported installation is required. Its 0.5-inch diameter suits branch lines feeding fixtures such as sinks, toilets, and hose bibbs. Always verify local plumbing codes before specifying Type M copper, as some jurisdictions restrict its use in specific applications.

Key Features

• Type M designation indicates a thinner wall profile optimized for interior water supply and hydronic applications
• Hard temper straight-length format holds shape without coiling, simplifying layout and cutting on the job
• 0.5-inch inner diameter compatible with standard sweat, press-fit, and push-to-connect fittings in the same nominal size
• 10-foot lengths reduce waste on typical residential rough-in runs
• Sold in packages of 25 lengths for stocking distributors and larger job site pulls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard stock item for residential and light commercial copper plumbing systems using 0.5-inch nominal fittings and valves.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local amendments. Shut off and drain the water supply before cutting into any existing system. Use a tubing cutter to produce a clean square cut, and ream the cut end before fluxing and soldering or pressing fittings. Do not use open-flame torches near combustible materials without proper shielding in place.
