Mueller Industries KS02060 Copper Seamless Tube 3/8 in Od

Product Description

The MUELLER INDUSTRIES KS02060 is a seamless copper tube used in plumbing, HVAC refrigerant lines, and hydronic systems. It measures 3/8 inch outside diameter with a 0.305 inch inside diameter and a 0.035 inch wall thickness, running 60 feet in length. Manufactured from C12200 phosphorus-deoxidized copper, it meets ASTM B88 and NSF 61G standards, making it suitable for potable water and mechanical applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters install this tube where a continuous, joint-minimized run is required. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams, reducing potential leak points in pressurized systems.

This tube is suited for residential and light commercial applications including domestic water supply, refrigerant distribution, and radiant heating loops. Its 60-foot coil length allows installers to run longer uninterrupted lines behind walls, under slabs, or through mechanical chases without intermediate fittings. The C12200 alloy designation indicates high-purity copper with excellent brazing and soldering characteristics, which is standard practice in both plumbing and refrigeration work.

Key Features

• Seamless construction for consistent wall thickness and reduced leak risk
• C12200 phosphorus-deoxidized copper alloy — compatible with brazing and soldering
• Meets ASTM B88 standard for seamless copper water tube
• NSF 61G listed for potable water system use
• 0.035 inch wall thickness provides reliable pressure tolerance for typical plumbing and HVAC applications
• 60-foot coil minimizes field joints on longer runs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8 inch OD seamless copper tube per ASTM B88, suitable for use with compatible solder-joint, flare, or compression fittings rated for 3/8 inch OD copper tube in plumbing and HVAC refrigerant line applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, IPC, or IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system before cutting or connecting the tube. Use a proper tube cutter to ensure square, burr-free cuts before soldering, brazing, or fitting assembly. Avoid kinking the coil during unrolling by supporting the tube with a reel or coil holder.
