It measures 0.75 inches outside diameter with a 0.625-inch inside diameter and a 0.049-inch wall thickness, making it the heaviest-wall option among standard copper tube types. The 5-foot straight length is suited for underground water service, underground gas distribution, medical gas installations, and other applications where maximum pressure rating and corrosion resistance are required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this product in both residential and light commercial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType K copper tube is the standard choice for underground water service lines where soil conditions, burial depth, or code requirements demand a heavier wall than Type L or Type M. This 5-foot section works well for short runs, connection points, stub-outs, and repair segments. The C12200 alloy designation confirms 99.9 percent copper content with a phosphorus deoxidizer, which makes the tube compatible with standard sweat, press-fit, and flare fittings used in potable water and hydronic systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType K designation: heaviest wall thickness of standard copper tube types, rated for higher working pressures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade C12200 phosphorus-deoxidized copper is suitable for potable water, underground service, and medical gas applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.049-inch wall thickness provides added durability in demanding burial and mechanical applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 0.418 pounds per foot, consistent with ASTM B88 Type K dimensional standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-foot straight length is practical for repair work, short service runs, and stub-out segments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard sweat solder, press-fit, and flare end connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style straight-length replacement or new-installation tube for residential and commercial plumbing systems requiring Type K copper tube with a 3\/4-inch nominal outside diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of copper water tube should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely before cutting into any existing line. Use a pipe cutter sized for 3\/4-inch copper and ream cut ends to remove burrs before fitting assembly. For underground installations, verify burial depth and bedding requirements per local code before backfilling.\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C12200\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 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: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight Per Foot\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.418 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.09 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: MUELLER INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: KH05005\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MUELLER INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540167229746,"sku":"KH05005","price":59.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fc97323da66074fd860199c909a8af11_0b8f5d10-b8dc-45c9-855d-c28e1f50c8d4.jpg?v=1785847741","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mueller-industries-kh05005-type-k-copper-tube-3-4-in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
