Copperfit 5335LF Brass Wye Strainer 1-1/2 in Lead Free

Product Description

The COPPERFIT 5335LF is a lead-free brass wye strainer sized for 1-1/2 inch pipe connections. Wye strainers are installed in-line to catch debris, scale, and particulate before it reaches valves, meters, pumps, and other downstream components. The lead-free brass construction meets drinking water safety requirements, making this strainer appropriate for potable water systems. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of strainer during new construction and retrofit work where line protection is needed. The wye body geometry allows the strainer screen to be cleaned or replaced without removing the fitting from the line.

This strainer is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where 1-1/2 inch pipe is used. Typical applications include domestic water supply lines, irrigation supply headers, and mechanical room piping where sediment protection is required upstream of sensitive equipment. The lead-free designation makes it code-compliant for potable water service in jurisdictions that enforce lead-free plumbing requirements under the Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets potable water compliance requirements
• Wye body design allows in-line screen access for cleaning without full line disassembly
• 1-1/2 inch connection size fits standard residential and light commercial pipe
• Protects downstream valves, pumps, and meters from debris and scale

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation wye strainer for 1-1/2 inch brass-compatible plumbing systems in potable water service.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line before installation. Orient the strainer so the screen leg points downward to allow sediment to collect by gravity and simplify blowdown. Follow local plumbing code requirements, including applicable IPC provisions, for strainer placement and access clearance.
