It reduces from a 7\/8 inch OD (3\/4 inch ID) sweat end to a 5\/8 inch OD (1\/2 inch ID) sweat end. This type of reducer is used to transition between two different copper tube sizes within a refrigerant or plumbing line. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this fitting as part of sweat-soldered copper piping assemblies in both residential and light commercial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for applications where a change in copper tube diameter is required along a run of Type L or Type M copper pipe. Common use cases include HVAC refrigerant line transitions, domestic hot and cold water distribution systems, and hydronic heating piping. The FTG end accepts a copper tube OD for soldering directly into a fitting socket, while the C end accepts standard copper tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces from 7\/8 inch OD to 5\/8 inch OD copper tube sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFTG x C configuration for sweat-solder installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper construction for compatibility with standard soldering and brazing practices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact fitting profile suited for tight spaces within piping runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with both HVAC refrigerant lines and plumbing water distribution systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style sweat fitting replacement for copper piping systems requiring a reduction from 7\/8 inch OD to 5\/8 inch OD tube connections in FTG x C configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician familiar with sweat-soldering copper fittings. Shut off and depressurize the system and ensure all lines are dry before soldering to achieve a clean, void-free joint. Follow applicable codes including the International Plumbing Code and ASHRAE standards for refrigerant piping when selecting solder or brazing alloy. Do not substitute soft solder on high-pressure refrigerant lines where brazing is required by code.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet OD\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet ID\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet OD\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet ID\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: FTG x C (Fitting x Copper Sweat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: DAKOTA SOURCING\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13132\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DAKOTA SOURCING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51671623696690,"sku":"13132","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fa0a1ca27f24c1759371b7e42f9a3643_2926fbe8-b39c-471b-bf9a-cf508098fc17.jpg?v=1787961155","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dakota-sourcing-13132-copper-reducer-ftg-x-c","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
