The integral stop positions the pipe at the correct depth for consistent, full solder joints every time. Rated to 500 psi and suitable for operating temperatures from 32 degrees F to 200 degrees F, this fitting handles the pressure and thermal demands of residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic systems. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting using standard sweat-soldering methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducer coupling is used wherever a copper supply line transitions from 3\/4-inch tubing down to 3\/8-inch tubing. Typical applications include domestic water distribution, branch supply lines to fixtures, and hydronic heating distribution piping. Its compact profile  -  1.6 inches in length, 1.05 inches in height, and 0.95 inches in width  -  makes it suitable for tight spaces inside walls, mechanical chases, and under-cabinet installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegral stop ensures consistent pipe insertion depth for reliable solder joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e500 psi pressure rating suitable for residential and light commercial service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSweat (C x C) connections on both ends for standard copper tubing installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions for use in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper construction for corrosion resistance and long service life in water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style copper sweat reducer fitting for residential and light commercial plumbing systems using 3\/4-inch and 3\/8-inch copper tubing with C-type (sweat solder) connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and local applicable codes. Shut off and drain the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Clean both pipe ends and fitting sockets with emery cloth or a pipe brush, apply flux, and sweat-solder with appropriate lead-free solder per code requirements. Do not apply heat to a fitting that still contains water, as steam pressure can cause injury.\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: C (Sweat Solder)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: C (Sweat Solder)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32 degrees F to 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.95 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 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: 77263\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949393609010,"sku":"77263","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/64a6c69e08347ce6780230f757739396.jpg?v=1791690855","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-77263-reducer-coupling-3-4-in-x-3-8-in-copper","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
