Elkhart Products WP4-2-24 Male Street Adapter 1-1/2 in Copper

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS WP4-2-24 is a 1-1/2 inch WROT copper male street adapter designed for sweat-solder copper piping systems. It features a FTG x M (fitting-to-male) connection, allowing it to connect directly into a fitting socket on one end and thread into a female-threaded fitting on the other. This adapter is used by licensed plumbers to transition between copper sweat systems and threaded connections in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. The WROT copper construction meets standard industry quality requirements for potable water and hydronic applications.

This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing where a copper sweat system meets a threaded connection point. Typical install scenarios include supply line transitions, branch connections, and service valve hookups. The street-style fitting eliminates the need for an additional coupling, reducing the number of solder joints in tight spaces. Plumbers working on water distribution, hydronic heating lines, or similar copper-pipe systems will encounter this fitting type regularly.

Key Features

• WROT copper construction for durability and compatibility with potable water systems
• FTG x M connection for direct sweat-to-threaded transitions
• Street-style design reduces required fittings in confined spaces
• Solder-type joint for a reliable, leak-resistant connection
• 1-1/2 inch nominal size fits standard copper pipe and fittings of the same diameter

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-1/2 inch copper sweat piping systems requiring a male-threaded outlet connection.

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 depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Clean and flux all mating surfaces thoroughly before applying heat; overheating WROT copper fittings can compromise the joint. Allow the solder joint to cool completely before restoring pressure and checking for leaks.
