Part of the International Cast Brass product line, this 3-inch union allows sections of copper pipe to be joined and later disconnected without cutting the line, which is essential for service work and future maintenance access. The lead-free brass construction meets current potable water requirements. Licensed plumbers install this fitting in residential and light commercial water distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis union is suited for applications where a serviceable mechanical joint is required on a copper pipe run. The CxC solder-type ends accept standard copper tube, making it compatible with common sweat-soldering installation practices. It is well suited for use in domestic water supply lines, HVAC hydronic distribution piping, and other systems where copper is the specified pipe material. The 3-inch size targets main distribution lines and larger branch runs rather than fixture supply applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets NSF and safe drinking water compliance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCxC solder-type ends for standard sweat installation on copper tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch size for main distribution or larger branch piping runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnion design allows future disassembly without cutting the pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast brass body from the International Cast Brass product line for consistent material quality\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 3-inch copper tube systems using CxC solder connections in residential and commercial plumbing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and drain the affected water supply line fully before soldering to prevent steam pressure buildup and ensure a clean, dry joint. Use appropriate flux and lead-free solder rated for potable water service. Inspect the union nut and seat surfaces before assembly to confirm they are free of debris that could cause a leak at the joint face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: CxC (Copper by Copper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJoint Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solder (Sweat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Line\u003c\/strong\u003e: International Cast Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4733\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ELKHART PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CP33-48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ELKHART PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51384021090610,"sku":"CP33-48","price":747.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312671840.png?v=1782615113","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/elkhart-products-cp33-48-lead-free-brass-union-3-in-cxc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
