It measures 2 feet in length with an outside diameter of 0.5 inches and an inside diameter of 0.375 inches. Wall thickness is 0.049 inches, which meets the heavier wall specification that defines Type K tubing. Weighing 0.269 pounds per foot, this tube is suited for underground burial, high-pressure service lines, and potable water distribution where a robust wall thickness is required. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this product for residential and commercial water supply applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType K copper tube is the heaviest wall grade available in copper water tubing and is commonly used in underground water service lines, main supply runs, and interior distribution systems where pressure ratings or burial conditions demand greater wall strength. This 2-foot section suits repair work, short runs, and fabrication tasks. The C12200 alloy designation indicates phosphorus-deoxidized copper, which resists hydrogen embrittlement and is compatible with soldering, brazing, and press-fit joining methods. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType K wall thickness of 0.049 inches for high-pressure and underground service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade C12200 phosphorus-deoxidized copper compatible with soldering and brazing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 0.5 inches with inside diameter of 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM B88, NSF 61G, and UNS C12200 standards for potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.269 pounds per foot weight makes field cutting and handling straightforward\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-foot length suitable for repair sections, short branch runs, and fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in potable water distribution systems requiring Type K copper tube with a 3\/8-inch nominal size and 1\/2-inch outside diameter, compatible with standard solder-joint, brazed, flared, and compression fittings sized for 1\/2-inch OD copper tube.\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 and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting or joining. Use a pipe cutter sized for copper to produce a clean, square end, and deburr the cut edge before fitting. Flux and filler materials used for soldering or brazing must be rated for potable water service per NSF guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type K Water Tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper, Grade C12200\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWall Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.049 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 feet (24 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight per Foot\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.269 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.538 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM B88, NSF 61G, UNS C12200\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: MUELLER INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: KH03002\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MUELLER INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543023616306,"sku":"KH03002","price":27.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fc97323da66074fd860199c909a8af11_e90c2196-251a-4e4b-b1f8-28a88828a702.jpg?v=1785913934","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mueller-industries-kh03002-type-k-copper-tube-1-2-in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
