Directedair da05r-11x08 Reducing Bushing 1-1/8x7/8 in Copper

Product Description

The DIRECTEDAIR da05r-11x08 is a copper reducing bushing designed for refrigerant and HVAC piping systems where a transition from a larger fitting to a smaller copper connection is required. This bushing steps down from a 1-1/8 inch fitting connection to a 7/8 inch copper connection. Manufactured from copper, it is built to industry dimensional and material composition standards. HVAC technicians and refrigeration mechanics use this type of fitting during line set assembly, system retrofits, and equipment changeouts where mismatched tubing sizes must be joined cleanly and securely.

This reducing bushing is suited for residential and light commercial refrigerant piping applications. It is commonly installed during split system changeouts, condenser replacements, or any application requiring a size reduction in the copper suction or liquid line. The fitting-to-copper configuration allows for straightforward brazing or press-fit installation depending on the job requirements and local code.

Key Features

• Copper construction for corrosion resistance and compatibility with refrigerant-grade tubing
• 1-1/8 inch fitting connection on the large end
• 7/8 inch copper connection on the small end
• Manufactured to industry standards for dimensional accuracy and material composition
• Suited for refrigerant line set and HVAC piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement reducing bushing for copper refrigerant and HVAC piping systems requiring a 1-1/8 inch to 7/8 inch size transition.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or refrigeration mechanic. Recover all refrigerant and confirm the system is fully depressurized before cutting or disconnecting any lines. Braze connections in accordance with local mechanical codes and industry best practices, using a nitrogen purge to prevent oxidation inside the fitting during the brazing process. Inspect the joint for leaks before recharging the system.
