Elkhart Products 9032450 Male Reducing Adapter 2x1.5in Copper

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS 9032450 is a wrot copper male reducing adapter designed to transition between 2-inch and 1-1/2-inch copper tubing in sweat-solder piping systems. This fitting uses a C x M (copper sweat by male threaded) connection, making it suitable for joining straight copper runs to threaded male fittings or valves. Wrot copper construction ensures high pressure and temperature performance consistent with Type L and Type K copper system requirements. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and mechanical piping applications where a reducing transition is required between two different pipe sizes.

This adapter is used wherever a 2-inch copper line must step down to a 1-1/2-inch male threaded connection. Typical applications include domestic water distribution, hydronic systems, and commercial mechanical piping. The solder-end connection allows a clean, low-profile joint on the sweat side, while the male thread accommodates a wide range of valves, couplings, and equipment connections. It is suited for both new construction and retrofit work in above-ground copper piping systems.

Key Features

• Wrot copper construction for high-integrity, leak-resistant solder joints
• Reduces from 2 inches (copper sweat) to 1-1/2 inches (male thread)
• C x M connection type accommodates sweat-to-threaded transitions
• Solder-type sweat end compatible with standard copper tube preparation
• Lightweight at 0.65 pounds for easy handling in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wrot copper fitting for use in 2-inch to 1-1/2-inch copper sweat-to-male-thread transitions in standard residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and drain the water supply before cutting into an existing line. Clean and flux all sweat surfaces before soldering; the male threaded end should be wrapped with thread seal tape or pipe dope before assembly. Do not overheat the fitting during soldering, as excessive heat can damage the fitting or adjacent components.
