It joins three lines with different diameters, featuring a 1-1\/2 inch run inlet, a 1 in run outlet, and a 3\/4 in branch outlet, all with copper sweat connection ends. This fitting is fabricated from copper and is suited for hydronic, domestic water, and general plumbing distribution work. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting where flow must be split or redirected while stepping down pipe size across one or more ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is used in residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC hydronic systems where copper sweat piping is the standard installation method. It is appropriate for supply and return water distribution, branch takeoffs, and system balancing tie-ins where a size transition is needed at the tee. The copper construction makes it compatible with standard lead-free solder and flux used in potable water and heating system applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree-port reducing configuration: 1-1\/2 in x 1 in x 3\/4 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll three ports use copper sweat (solder) connection type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper construction compatible with lead-free solder and flux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.5 pounds, minimizing load on small-diameter branch lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum order quantity of 1, available as a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for copper sweat piping systems requiring a reducing tee at 1-1\/2 in x 1 in x 3\/4 in connection sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and drain the affected water or hydronic circuit completely before cutting into existing piping. Clean and deburr all pipe ends, apply appropriate lead-free flux, and sweat all joints with a propane or MAP gas torch before restoring system pressure. Do not pressure-test the joint until the solder has fully cooled and solidified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1 (Run Inlet)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper Sweat (C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2 (Run Outlet)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper Sweat (C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 3 (Branch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 3\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper Sweat (C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 77529\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949904593202,"sku":"77529","price":54.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0ceadde3882f46bfd1221304a46ff753_9a19ca72-8b72-442b-9810-81d244308f10.jpg?v=1791703966","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-77529-copper-sweat-reducing-tee","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
