Elkhart Products 10032828 Reducing Tee 1x1x1/2 Copper

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS 10032828 is a wrot copper reducing tee designed for sweat-solder copper piping systems. Sized at 1 inches x 1 inches x 1/2 inches with a C x C x C (copper-to-copper-to-copper) connection type, this fitting reduces a branch outlet from a 1-inch run to a 1/2-inch takeoff. Wrot copper construction meets the demands of potable water, hydronic heating, and general plumbing distribution systems. At 0.183 pounds, it is a lightweight, compact fitting appropriate for tight-space rough-in work. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a branch reduction is needed without adding an additional coupling.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where copper sweat fittings are specified. Typical install scenarios include domestic hot and cold water distribution, baseboard hydronic loops, and radiant heating supply lines. The 1/2-inch branch outlet makes it a common choice for individual fixture branch feeds taken off a 1-inch main.

Key Features

• Wrot copper construction provides consistent grain structure and reliable pressure performance
• C x C x C solder-end connections are compatible with standard copper tubing and sweat-soldering practice
• 1/2-inch reduced branch outlet allows direct feed to 1/2-inch fixture or appliance lines
• Compact body dimensions of 1.81 inches x 2.52 inches x 1.23 inches suit tight framing cavities
• Lightweight at 0.183 pounds, reducing cumulative load in multi-fitting assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sweat-solder fitting for use with standard 1-inch and 1/2-inch copper tubing in residential and commercial plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and depressurize and drain the affected piping before cutting in the fitting. Clean all tube ends and fitting cups with emery cloth and apply flux before sweating; use lead-free solder where potable water service is involved. Allow the joint to cool fully before restoring water pressure and inspecting for leaks.
