Copperfit 5334LF Brass Wye Strainer 1-1/4 in Lead Free

Product Description

The COPPERFIT 5334LF is a lead-free brass wye strainer sized for 1-1/4 inch pipe connections. Wye strainers are inline filtration fittings that trap debris, scale, and particulate before it reaches downstream valves, meters, pumps, or other sensitive equipment. This strainer is constructed from brass and meets lead-free compliance standards, making it suitable for potable water applications where local codes require lead-free materials. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers during new construction or retrofit work on domestic water supply systems.

The 5334LF is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where 1-1/4 inch pipe sizing is specified. Common installation points include supply lines ahead of pressure-reducing valves, water heaters, boilers, and circulation pumps. The wye body orientation allows the strainer screen to be accessed and cleaned without removing the fitting from the line, reducing service time during routine maintenance calls.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before installing or servicing the strainer. Orient the wye leg downward when possible to allow sediment to collect at the cleanout plug for easier maintenance. Do not overtighten threaded connections; use appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for potable water service.
