Sized at 1\/2 inch by 1\/4 inch with a C x C (copper-to-copper) connection type, this fitting reduces line size in a single joint without adapters or additional fittings. It is part of the KLEENFIT product line, which means it arrives cleaned and bagged from the factory, reducing prep time on the job. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction, remodel work, and system modifications where a step-down in pipe diameter is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducer coupling is suited for residential and light commercial potable water and hydronic applications where copper sweat fittings are specified. The built-in stop positions the pipe consistently during assembly, helping ensure a full, clean solder joint every time. It is appropriate for use in supply lines, branch connections, and any run where a transition from 1\/2 inch to 1\/4 inch copper tubing is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper construction for corrosion resistance and long service life in water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC x C solder connection type for secure, leak-free joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated stop positions pipe correctly for consistent solder joint depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKLEENFIT line: factory cleaned and bagged, ready to solder without additional cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor at 0.70 x 1.06 x 0.70 inches and 0.025 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for copper sweat plumbing systems requiring a 1\/2 inch by 1\/4 inch reduction in line size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes.
