Elkhart Products TEE-34X34X12 Copper Tee 3/4x3/4x1/2

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS TEE-34X34X12 is a reducing copper tee fitting sized at 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/2 inches. It is manufactured from copper and supplied cleaned and bagged, making it ready for immediate use in sweat-solder or press applications. This fitting is designed for use in potable water supply, hydronic heating, and general plumbing distribution systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when branching a 1/2-inch outlet off a 3/4-inch main run. The cleaned and bagged packaging protects the interior surfaces from contamination prior to installation, reducing prep time on the job.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing rough-in work where a 3/4-inch supply line requires a 1/2-inch branch connection. Typical applications include domestic hot and cold water distribution, baseboard hydronic systems, and in-wall supply rough-ins. It is compatible with standard copper tubing per ASTM B88 Type L and Type K service lines of the corresponding diameters.

Key Features

• 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/2 inch reducing configuration allows branch tap off a 3/4-inch main run
• Copper construction provides corrosion resistance and long service life in water systems

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into existing pipe. Use a pipe cutter, emery cloth, flux, and a torch appropriate for lead-free solder work. Ensure all mating tube ends are clean, deburred, and fully seated into the fitting sockets before applying heat.
