It transitions from a 2.5-inch fitting (FTG) end to a 1.5-inch press end, eliminating the need for open flame during installation. Rated to 300 psi and a maximum operating temperature of 250 degrees F, this fitting suits a wide range of hydronic, potable water, and mechanical system applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting using a press tool and compatible jaws, making it well-suited for occupied buildings or environments where torch work is restricted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducer is used in residential and commercial plumbing systems where a pipe size reduction is required along a copper run. The flameless press connection method makes it appropriate for retrofit and new construction work in spaces with limited ventilation or fire-hazard concerns. It covers a diameter range consistent with the Streamline PRSTM copper press product family, which is available from 0.5 inches through 4 inches in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlameless press connection eliminates torch and solder for faster, safer installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFTG x Press end configuration for direct coupling into sweat or press piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 300 psi maximum operating pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -20 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NSF\/ANSI 61 for potable water system components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompliant with ASME B16.51, IAPMO PS-117, NSF\/ANSI 372, and CSA TIL-MSE-13\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style press fitting for copper piping systems requiring a 2.5-inch to 1.5-inch reduction with a fitting-by-press end configuration.

Shut off and depressurize the water supply before making connections. Verify that the pipe ends are clean, deburred, and fully inserted into the fitting before pressing. Always follow local plumbing codes, IPC requirements, and the tool manufacturer's guidelines for press connection procedures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fitting (FTG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecond End Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecond End Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Operating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -20 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.88 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B16.51, IAPMO PS-117, NSF\/ANSI 61, NSF\/ANSI 372, CSA TIL-MSE-13\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 STREAMLINE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1368\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MUELLER STREAMLINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468627607858,"sku":"1368","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313946686.jpg?v=1783919329","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mueller-streamline-1368-copper-press-reducer-2-5x1-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
