Matco-norca ibit04lf Lead Free Bronze Insert Tee 3/4

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA ibit04lf is a 3/4-inch lead-free bronze insert tee designed for barbed insert connections in plumbing and fluid-handling systems. The insert-by-insert-by-insert (IxIxI) configuration allows the fitting to accept barbed tubing on all three ports, making it a reliable choice for splitting or combining flow in flexible tubing runs. Constructed from lead-free bronze, this fitting meets potable water compliance requirements. It is sized at 3/4 inch across all three ports. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both residential and light commercial applications where barbed insert connections are specified.

The ibit04lf is used in domestic water distribution, hydronic systems, and other fluid-handling lines where flexible tubing is joined with clamps or crimp rings over barbed fittings. The full IxIxI port design suits branch tee configurations where a single supply line needs to be split into two outlets or where two lines are brought together into one. This fitting is appropriate for use with tubing types compatible with standard 3/4-inch barbed insert fittings.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 3/4-inch barbed insert tee applications in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line or removing fittings. Secure tubing onto each barbed port with appropriately rated clamps or crimp rings rated for the operating pressure of the system. Do not overtighten clamps in a way that deforms the tubing wall or fitting barbs.
