Elkhart Products WP3-2-12 3/4 in Copper Female Street Adapter

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS WP3-2-12 is a 3/4-inch WROT copper female street adapter used to connect copper tubing in residential and commercial plumbing systems. It features a FTG x F (fitting-to-female) end configuration and is joined by solder, making it a standard sweat-fit connection. This adapter allows a male fitting or pipe end to thread or insert directly into a female socket, simplifying transitions in tight or in-line installations. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in potable water supply lines, hydronic heating runs, and general copper distribution piping where a compact, reliable solder joint is required.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial copper plumbing applications. The street adapter configuration is commonly used when connecting back-to-back fittings without a short nipple between them, reducing overall assembly length. Its WROT (wrought) copper construction ensures dense grain structure and consistent wall thickness, which supports reliable solder flow and long-term joint integrity. Licensed plumbers typically specify this fitting for water supply rough-in, fixture connections, and repair work on 3/4-inch copper systems.

Key Features

• WROT copper construction for dense, consistent wall thickness and reliable solder joints
• FTG x F end configuration allows direct fitting-to-fitting connections without a nipple
• Solder-type (sweat) joint compatible with standard plumbing torch and flux procedures
• 3/4-inch size fits common residential and commercial water distribution lines
• Lightweight at 0.143 pounds, minimizing load on overhead or wall-run piping assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 3/4-inch copper plumbing systems using sweat-solder connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off and drain the water supply completely before cutting or disassembling any existing copper line. Clean all mating surfaces with emery cloth and apply flux before soldering to ensure full capillary penetration. Allow the joint to cool fully before restoring water pressure and inspecting for leaks.
