Matco-norca 450L08C Compression Coupling Brass 2 Inch

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA 450L08C is a brass compression coupling designed for use with 2-inch copper tubing in plumbing systems. Built to a long-pattern design at 5 inches in length, this slip joint union provides a reliable mechanical connection without soldering. Rated at 125 psi at 180 degrees F, it handles standard residential and light commercial service pressures with confidence. The fitting ships complete with two nuts and two gaskets, making it a ready-to-install assembly. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of compression fitting.

This compression coupling is suited for residential and commercial plumbing applications where a solder-free connection to 2-inch copper tubing is required. The long-pattern body gives additional engagement length, which is useful in repair scenarios where tubing ends may be slightly damaged or where extra joint strength is needed. Its slip joint union design allows the coupling to slide over existing tubing, simplifying repairs to existing runs without cutting back to a fitting stub.

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers working on copper water distribution or hydronic piping systems. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and deburred before seating the compression nuts and gaskets. Follow local plumbing codes, including applicable IPC requirements, for approved connection methods and pressure testing after installation.
