It connects two 3\/4-inch cold-expansion PEX runs to a 1-inch cold-expansion PEX line, making it well suited for branch or transition points in domestic water distribution. The fitting is constructed from lead-free brass, meeting the material standards required for potable water service. At 3.3 inches in length and 0.315 pounds, it is compact and manageable during rough-in work. Licensed plumbers and journeyman pipe fitters are the primary installers of this fitting in residential and light commercial new construction or remodel projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in cold expansion PEX plumbing installations where a run changes diameter or splits off a branch line. Cold expansion connections require an expansion tool and PEX expansion rings or sleeves  -  the fitting is not compatible with crimp, clamp, or press-style PEX systems. Typical applications include trunk-and-branch or home-run manifold systems in residential water supply rough-ins and light commercial plumbing where lead-free materials are code-required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets potable water compliance requirements under federal and state plumbing codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCold expansion connection on all three ports  -  compatible with expansion-style PEX tools and rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration: 3\/4 inch x 3\/4 inch x 1 inch allows diameter transitions at a tee without additional fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact footprint  -  3.3 inches in length, 2.25 inches in width, 1.45 inches in height\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece union tee design simplifies branch connections in tight framing cavities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with cold-expansion PEX pipe systems only.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into any existing piping. Work must comply with local plumbing codes, which typically reference the IPC or UPC for PEX fitting and material standards. Lead-free brass fittings are required on all potable water systems in most jurisdictions  -  verify local code compliance before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cold-Expansion PEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cold-Expansion PEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 3\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 3\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cold-Expansion PEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.315 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35050CE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950534852914,"sku":"35050CE","price":18.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b2754f1010dcc583917eae6c866dca33_011f05b0-c1d3-40e0-8ece-3b24fba5a5ae.jpg?v=1791720814","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-35050ce-pex-reducing-union-tee","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
