Elkhart Products 3 X 2 Red Copper Reducer Coupling 3x2

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS 3 X 2 RED is a wrot copper reducer coupling with an integrated stop, designed for sweat-solder connections in copper piping systems. Sized at 3 inches x 2 inches with a C x C (copper-to-copper) connection type, this fitting allows a technician to step down from a 3-inch line to a 2-inch line while the built-in stop ensures consistent, repeatable insertion depth during assembly. Weighing 0.991 pounds, it is suited for residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical piping applications where a reliable, pressure-rated solder joint is required.

This reducer coupling is used in hydronic heating systems, domestic water distribution, and mechanical room piping where copper is the specified material. It is appropriate for trunk-to-branch transitions, riser reductions, and retrofit work where existing 3-inch copper main lines need to feed a 2-inch branch or sub-main. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this fitting as part of new construction or remodel work on copper supply systems.

Key Features

• Wrot copper construction for high-integrity sweat-solder joints
• Integrated stop ensures consistent insertion depth and uniform joint formation
• C x C connection accepts standard copper tubing on both ends
• 3-inch x 2-inch reducing configuration for trunk-to-branch or main-to-sub-main transitions
• Solder-type fitting compatible with standard plumbing torch and flux procedures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for wrot copper solder-joint systems using standard 3-inch and 2-inch copper tubing per ASTM specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off and drain the water supply completely before cutting into any existing line. Clean and flux both tube ends and the fitting socket thoroughly before applying heat to ensure a full, void-free solder joint. Avoid overheating the fitting, as excessive heat can damage the copper and compromise joint integrity.
