Cerro Flow Products Llc 1647 Type M Hard Copper Tube

Product Description

The CERRO FLOW PRODUCTS LLC 1647 is a Type M hard copper tube sized at 0.5 inches nominal diameter and 2 feet in length. Type M copper tubing features a thinner wall than Type K or Type L, making it a cost-effective choice for residential water distribution systems where lower internal pressures are the norm. It is sold in packages of 25 pieces, totaling a combined package weight of 9.47 pounds. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this tubing for domestic hot and cold water supply lines in new construction and remodel work.

This Type M hard copper tube is suited for residential indoor water supply applications including hot and cold distribution lines, baseboard heating connections, and general plumbing rough-in work. The hard-drawn temper holds its shape without support over standard span lengths, making it appropriate for straight runs through walls, floors, and mechanical chases. It is intended for above-ground or in-wall installations where the local code permits Type M copper.

Key Features

• Type M wall thickness rated for standard residential water supply pressures
• Hard-drawn temper maintains straight runs without additional bracing over typical span distances
• 0.5 inches nominal diameter fits standard solder-type and press-fit fittings of the same size
• 2-foot lengths reduce on-site cutting for tight rough-in scenarios
• Sold in a 25-piece package for efficient stocking and job-lot purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock copper tube compatible with 0.5-inch solder-joint, compression, and press-fit fittings rated for Type M hard copper in residential plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local amendments. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting into any existing line. Use a pipe cutter rather than a saw to produce a clean, burr-free end, and ream the cut edge before soldering or pressing to ensure a leak-free joint. Verify that local code permits Type M copper for the intended application before installation.
