Midland Industries 77244 Solder Joint Coupling 2in C X C Copper

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 77244 is a wrot copper solder joint coupling with a dimpled tube stop, designed for 2-inch C x 2-inch C sweat connections in copper piping systems. The dimpled tube stop centers the pipe inside the fitting and controls insertion depth, ensuring consistent solder joint quality. Rated to 400 psi and suitable for operating temperatures from 32 degrees F to 200 degrees F, this coupling is built for reliable performance in pressurized domestic water, hydronic heating, and general plumbing distribution lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of standard copper sweat work.

This coupling is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where straight-run copper pipe sections need to be joined. Typical installations include domestic hot and cold water supply lines, recirculation loops, and hydronic heating distribution piping. The 2-inch size suits main distribution runs and larger branch lines. The wrot copper construction conforms to standard material requirements for potable water and mechanical systems where code compliance is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC standards. Shut off and depressurize the water supply and allow all pipe sections to dry completely before soldering. Clean pipe ends and fitting socket surfaces with emery cloth and apply flux before making the solder joint. Do not apply flame directly to the fitting body for extended periods, as overheating can compromise joint integrity.
