Matco-norca B-CR04 Rough Brass Cross Fitting 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA B-CR04 is a rough brass cross fitting sized at 1/2 inch, designed for use in plumbing distribution systems where a single line must branch in four directions at one junction point. Rough brass construction provides durability and corrosion resistance in both water supply and low-pressure fluid handling applications. This type of fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters working on residential and light commercial systems.

The B-CR04 cross fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a four-way branch connection is required. Typical scenarios include water distribution manifolds, irrigation sub-assemblies, and other piping networks where multiple branch lines originate from a single point. The rough brass finish is compatible with standard soldering, threading, or press-fit joining methods depending on the end connection type of the fitting.

Key Features

• Four-way cross configuration allows a single pipeline to branch in four directions at one junction
• Rough brass material offers resistance to corrosion in potable water and general plumbing service
• 1/2 inch size fits standard half-inch plumbing lines commonly found in residential and light commercial systems
• Compact cross geometry minimizes the footprint of multi-branch connections in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation cross fitting for standard 1/2 inch plumbing piping systems in residential and light commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely before cutting into any existing line or removing any fitting. Ensure all mating pipe ends are clean, deburred, and properly prepared prior to joining. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as brass fittings can crack under excessive mechanical stress.
