Ford Meter Box t441-334-q-nl Cts Quick Joint Tee No Lead

Product Description

The FORD METER BOX t441-334-q-nl is a no-lead tee fitting designed for water service line connections. It features a 3/4-inch CTS Quick Joint run on both inline ports and a 1-inch Female Iron Pipe Thread (FIP) side outlet. The quick joint ends allow tool-free push-to-connect installation on CTS tubing, while the FIP side outlet threads directly to pipe or valve connections. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and waterworks contractors working on potable water service applications where lead-free materials are required.

This tee is suited for residential and light commercial water service installations where a branch connection must be made off a CTS main run. The quick joint design reduces labor time compared to solvent-weld or compression fittings. The FIP side outlet accommodates standard threaded valves, meters, or fittings. Typical applications include service line taps, meter settings, and curb stop configurations common in municipal and site utility work.

• No-lead construction meets safe drinking water requirements for potable water service
• 3/4-inch CTS Quick Joint inline ports for push-to-connect installation without tools
• 1-inch FIP side outlet for direct threaded valve or meter connections

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water service line before cutting or joining any fittings. Confirm CTS tubing is cut square and fully inserted to the marked depth on quick joint ports before pressurizing. Thread connections at the FIP outlet should be made with appropriate thread sealant rated for potable water service.
