Mueller Industries LS03060 Seamless Copper Tube 1/2 in Od

Product Description

The MUELLER INDUSTRIES LS03060 is a seamless copper tube designed for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems. Manufactured from C12200 phosphorus deoxidized copper, this tube measures 0.5 inches OD with a 0.43 inch ID and a 0.035 inch wall thickness. The 60-foot coil length reduces fitting count and speeds rough-in work. At 0.198 pounds per foot, the full coil weighs approximately 11.88 pounds. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers. It conforms to ASTM B88 and NSF 61G, making it suitable for potable water and refrigerant service applications.

This tube is used in water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, refrigeration line sets, and general mechanical piping where a seamless, corrosion-resistant copper tube is required. The 60-foot coil format is well suited for longer runs in residential construction, light commercial work, and retrofit installations where minimizing joints is a priority. The nominal size is 3/8 inch, and the 1/2 inch OD dimension follows standard ACR and plumbing tube sizing conventions used by trade professionals.

Key Features

• Seamless construction eliminates longitudinal weld seams for consistent wall integrity
• C12200 phosphorus deoxidized copper material grade for reliable brazing and soldering
• Meets ASTM B88 standard for seamless copper water tube
• NSF 61G listed for potable water contact applications
• 60-foot coil length reduces the number of joints required on long runs
• 0.035 inch wall thickness provides a balance of pressure rating and workability

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and field replacement seamless copper tube for plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration piping systems requiring a 1/2 inch OD seamless copper tube conforming to ASTM B88 and NSF 61G.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes, the IPC, and IFGC where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the system before cutting or connecting to existing lines. Use appropriate tube cutters, deburring tools, and flux rated for copper to ensure clean solder or braze joints. Do not bend beyond the minimum bend radius for this tube diameter without proper tube bending equipment.
