Midland Industries 77295 Copper Reducer Coupling 5/8x1/2 in

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 77295 is a copper reducer coupling designed to connect two pipes of different diameters in a sweat-fit plumbing system. One end accepts a 5/8-inch fitting connection and the other end accepts a 1/2-inch sweat (C) connection, making it a practical solution for transitioning between pipe sizes without additional adapters. Rated to 500 psi and suitable for service temperatures ranging from 32 degrees F to 200 degrees F, this fitting handles standard residential and light commercial plumbing demands. At 0.030 pounds, it is a lightweight, compact component suited for tight spaces.

This reducer coupling is used in copper sweat plumbing installations where a pipe size reduction is required inline. Typical applications include domestic water distribution systems, hydronic heating loops, and general plumbing rough-in work. It is installed by licensed plumbers and experienced pipe fitters working on new construction or retrofit projects requiring a reliable, pressure-rated copper transition between 5/8-inch and 1/2-inch lines.

Key Features

• Reduces from 5/8-inch fitting connection to 1/2-inch sweat (C) connection in a single fitting
• Rated to 500 psi for reliable performance in pressurized water systems
• Serviceable temperature range of 32 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• Copper construction for corrosion resistance and long service life
• Compact and lightweight at 0.030 pounds for easy handling in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install copper sweat reducer coupling for residential and light commercial plumbing systems requiring a 5/8-inch to 1/2-inch pipe size transition.

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 fully depressurize and drain the line before cutting or sweating any fittings. Use appropriate flux and lead-free solder rated for potable water systems where required. Allow the joint to cool completely before restoring water pressure and inspecting for leaks.
