Charlotte Pipe 5014 Flowguard Gold Cpvc Cts Tee Socket X Socket X Socket 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe 5014 is a 1/2 inch FlowGuard Gold CPVC CTS Tee designed for residential and commercial hot and cold water distribution systems. This tee fitting features a Socket x Socket x Socket configuration, meaning all three ports accept solvent-welded pipe connections for a secure, leak-resistant joint. CPVC, or chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, is a thermoplastic material widely trusted by plumbers for potable water systems. It handles temperatures up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for both hot and cold supply lines throughout a building. The CTS designation stands for Copper Tube Size, which means this fitting is dimensioned to match standard copper tubing outside diameters. This allows for easy integration into existing copper-based layouts or full CPVC system builds. FlowGuard Gold is one of the most recognized CPVC piping systems in the plumbing trade. It is manufactured to meet strict industry standards for potable water safety, including NSF and ASTM certifications. The material is nontoxic and will not leach harmful substances into the water supply, meeting the most stringent regulatory requirements in the industry. Unlike metallic systems, CPVC offers natural insulation properties that help retain heat in hot water lines. This reduces energy consumption and lowers hot water heating costs over time. The material is also highly resistant to corrosion, scale buildup, and chemical degradation, which extends the service life of the system. Plumbers and pipefitters use this tee to branch off a main supply line to feed a secondary run in residential homes, apartment buildings, hotels, and light commercial construction. The 1/2 inch size is one of the most common branch sizes used in standard water distribution layouts. This fitting complies with CPVC CTS pressure system requirements and is rated for pressure systems where operating conditions remain within safe temperature and pressure limits.
