It measures 5 feet in length with a 1-1\/8 inch outside diameter, a 1 inch inside diameter, and a 0.065 inch wall thickness. Type K designation indicates the heaviest wall thickness in the standard copper tube series, making it well suited for underground service lines, high-pressure domestic water systems, and applications where additional wall strength is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this tube in both new construction and retrofit projects. It meets ASTM B88 and NSF 61G standards, confirming suitability for potable water service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tube is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where Type K copper is specified by code or design. Common applications include underground water service entries, main supply lines, and interior distribution where higher working pressures or soil-burial conditions demand a heavier wall. The 5-foot stick length is appropriate for measured rough-in runs and short connection spells where a full 20-foot straight length is not needed. Plumbing contractors, mechanical contractors, and journeyman plumbers routinely stock this size for 1-inch nominal service line work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType K wall designation — heaviest standard wall for copper tube, rated for underground and high-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC12200 phosphorus-deoxidized copper alloy per UNS C12200 — excellent corrosion resistance and solderability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.065 inch wall thickness for added durability over Type L and Type M alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with ASTM B88, NSF 61G — approved for potable water contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-foot straight length at 0.839 pounds per foot — easy to handle and cut on the job\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in potable water distribution systems where Type K copper tube with a 1-inch nominal size and 1-1\/8 inch outside diameter is specified.
