Elkhart Products 9010790 Copper Fitting Reducer 6x2 in

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS 9010790 is a copper fitting reducer designed to connect two sections of copper pipe at different diameters, stepping down from a 6-inch fitting end to a 2-inch fitting end. This type of concentric reducer is used in plumbing and mechanical piping systems where a line size change is required within the same run. It is installed using standard sweat-solder (copper-to-copper) technique and is handled by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial and residential piping systems.

This reducer is suited for use in water supply, hydronic heating, and general plumbing piping installations where a significant diameter transition is needed. The fitting-by-fitting (FTG x FTG) end configuration allows it to be inserted directly into a socket fitting on both ends, making it compatible with standard copper tube and wrought copper fitting assemblies used across commercial and residential mechanical systems.

Key Features

• Copper construction provides reliable corrosion resistance in water service applications
• Fitting-end (FTG) configuration on both ends for direct socket-to-socket installation
• 6-inch to 2-inch reduction accommodates significant line size transitions in a single fitting
• Compatible with standard sweat-solder joining methods per common plumbing codes
• Wrought copper material supports use in pressure piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for copper sweat piping systems requiring a 6-inch to 2-inch line size reduction in plumbing and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water system and allow all pipe sections to cool completely before cutting in or removing an existing fitting. Clean and flux all mating surfaces thoroughly before soldering; use lead-free solder where required by code for potable water systems. Inspect the joint for full, even solder flow around the fitting socket before restoring system pressure.
