Elkhart Products 2 X 1 Red Copper Reducer Coupling 2x1 in

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS 2 X 1 RED is a wrot copper reducer coupling with stop, designed to transition between 2-inch and 1-inch copper pipe in sweat-soldered water supply systems. The built-in stop ensures consistent seating depth during assembly, reducing the chance of misalignment before the joint is sweated. This fitting is manufactured from wrot copper, which offers a dense, wrought grain structure that performs reliably in pressure applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial water distribution systems where a clean, permanent reduction in line size is required.

This reducer coupling is suited for use in potable water supply lines, recirculation loops, and general copper plumbing systems that call for a 2-inch to 1-inch reduction. The cup-by-cup (C x C) end configuration accepts standard copper tubing on both ends and is joined using conventional solder and flux. It is a direct-sweat fitting requiring no mechanical tools for the joint itself beyond a torch, flux brush, and proper cleaning materials.

Key Features

• Wrot copper construction provides consistent wall thickness and a dense grain structure suited for pressure service
• Built-in stop ensures accurate tube seating depth for a uniform solder joint on both ends
• C x C connection accepts standard copper tube on the 2-inch and 1-inch ends
• Solder-type joint is compatible with standard lead-free solder and flux per applicable plumbing codes
• Model 101R product line for wrot copper reducing fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wrot copper sweat fitting for use with standard 2-inch and 1-inch Type K, L, or M copper tubing in residential and commercial plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the water supply and drain the line completely before cutting or fitting. Clean both tube ends and fitting cups thoroughly with emery cloth or a pipe cleaning brush and apply an approved lead-free flux before sweating the joint. Do not apply heat directly to the fitting stop or overheat the joint, as excessive heat can compromise the solder bond.
