Mueller Streamline COTRED13434 Copper Reducing Tee

Product Description

The MUELLER STREAMLINE COTRED13434 is a copper reducing tee fitting designed for use in continuous pipeline systems where a branch connection to a different direction is required. Sized at 1 inch by 3/4 inch by 3/4 inch, it features solder cup ends for a clean, reliable sweat connection. Manufactured from ASTM B75 Alloy C12200 copper, this fitting is lead free and dezincification resistant. It carries third-party certification to NSF/ANSI 61 Annex G and meets ASME B16.22, MSS SP-104, and MSS SP-109 standards. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on plumbing, hydronic, and medical gas systems are the primary installers.

This fitting is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and medical gas piping applications. Its certifications under NFPA 99 Health Care Facilities Gas and Vacuum Systems and the Compressed Gas Association Pamphlet G4.1 make it appropriate for medical gas distribution systems in healthcare facilities. The reducing configuration accommodates a 1-inch run with 3/4-inch branch and outlet, making it useful wherever a pipe size transition and branch takeoff are needed in a single fitting.
