Mueller Industries lh10020 Type L Copper Pipe 1 in Id 20 Ft

Product Description

The MUELLER INDUSTRIES lh10020 is a Type L copper pipe used in residential and commercial plumbing supply systems. Measuring 1 inch inside diameter and 20 feet in length, this straight copper tube is rated for pressures up to 247 psi and temperatures from 150 degrees F to 400 degrees F. The 0.050-inch wall thickness meets Type L specifications, which position this pipe between the thinner Type M and heavier Type K in terms of wall gauge. Solder-end connections make it compatible with standard sweat-fit fittings. Manufactured in the USA and TAA/BAA compliant, this pipe is a dependable choice for licensed plumbers working on new construction and retrofit projects.

Type L copper pipe is widely used in potable water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and general plumbing distribution in both residential and light commercial applications. The 20-foot straight length suits main supply runs, branch lines, and in-wall or under-slab installations. Each piece is marked and color-coded for Type L identification, helping installers confirm pipe type at a glance during inspection and rough-in. With a 1-inch inside diameter, this size handles moderate-to-high flow demand zones such as main trunk lines and riser sections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC).
