It transitions from a 3\/8-inch connection to a 1\/4-inch connection, making it a compact and reliable solution for reducing line size in residential and commercial copper piping systems. At 0.01 pounds actual weight and measuring 1.5 inches in length, the fitting is well-suited for tight spaces. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians regularly install this type of fitting in potable water, refrigeration, and HVAC applications where sweat joints are specified. Compliance with ASME and NSF standards confirms the fitting meets recognized performance and safety requirements for copper fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducer fitting is used wherever a copper line must step down from 3\/8-inch to 1\/4-inch tubing, including domestic water supply lines, refrigeration suction and liquid lines, and HVAC equipment connections. Its wrot copper construction provides the consistent grain structure and workability that technicians depend on when making clean, leak-free soldered joints. The fitting is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit installations in residential and light commercial environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWrot copper construction for consistent solderability and long-term corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch x 1\/4-inch sweat (CxC) connection for reducing copper line size\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile at 1.5 inches length and 0.9 inches width for tight-space installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME and NSF standards for copper fittings used in plumbing and HVAC systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.01 pounds actual weight, minimizing load on piping assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use sweat fitting compatible with 3\/8-inch x 1\/4-inch copper tubing systems in plumbing and HVAC applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician familiar with sweat-soldering copper fittings. Shut off the water or refrigerant supply and fully depressurize and dry the line before soldering. Use appropriate flux and lead-free solder where required by local plumbing codes; potable water applications typically require lead-free solder per IPC guidelines. Allow the joint to cool completely before restoring system pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wrot Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper Sweat (CxC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch x 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Length\/Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\/Compliance\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME, NSF\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: FTG00170\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MUELLER STREAMLINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524842488114,"sku":"FTG00170","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/faf1ce9edd6d94fd0471a6226a01bffa.webp?v=1785459321","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mueller-streamline-ftg00170-copper-reducer-fitting","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
