Elkhart Products WPT-64-48-40 Copper Reducing Tee

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS WPT-64-48-40 is a copper reducing tee fitting designed for pressure piping systems in plumbing and mechanical applications. It provides a three-way branch connection with a 4-inch run, 3-inch outlet run, and a 2.5-inch branch, allowing flow to be redirected or distributed across differently sized pipe sections. This fitting is handled and installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and commercial water supply, hydronic heating, or general pressure piping systems.

This reducing tee is suited for installations where pipe sizing steps down across a branch or run. Common applications include main water distribution lines, boiler supply and return piping, and mechanical room rough-in work where multiple pipe sizes converge. The fitting connects to standard copper tubing and is joined using soldering or brazing methods per applicable plumbing codes.

Key Features

• Three-way reducing configuration accepts 4-inch, 3-inch, and 2.5-inch copper pipe
• Copper construction provides corrosion resistance and long service life in water piping
• Compatible with standard solder-joint and brazed connections per ASTM and ASME guidelines
• Suitable for potable water, hydronic, and general pressure piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for copper pressure piping systems using 4-inch, 3-inch, and 2.5-inch nominal copper tube sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC or applicable regional equivalent. Shut off and depressurize the water supply and allow all pipe sections to cool completely before cutting or fitting. Clean and flux all joint surfaces prior to soldering or brazing, and follow ASTM B828 or applicable standard for joint preparation. Do not use open flame near flammable materials without proper shielding in place.
