This type of fitting is a standard component in plumbing, hydronic heating, and mechanical piping systems. It is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial copper pipe assemblies. The wrought copper construction provides consistent wall thickness and reliable joint integrity when soldered or brazed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis external bushing fits into a 3-inch copper fitting or pipe socket on one end and accepts a 1-1\/2-inch copper pipe on the other, allowing a branch or main line to be reduced without the need for a coupling and separate reducer. It is commonly used in water supply, HVAC hydronic circuits, and general mechanical piping where copper is the specified material. Both ends are designed for solder-joint connection per industry-standard practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrought copper construction for consistent dimensional tolerance and strong brazed or soldered joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal bushing profile reduces from 3 inches to 1-1\/2 inches in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCxC end connections compatible with standard copper tube and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for water supply, hydronic heating, and general mechanical piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to wrought copper fitting standards for pressure piping service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-service fitting for use with 3-inch x 1-1\/2-inch CxC copper piping systems in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASME B16.22 standards for wrought copper fittings. Shut off and drain the affected piping system completely before cutting or disassembling any connections. Surfaces must be cleaned and fluxed before soldering or brazing per standard copper joining procedures. Do not overtighten or force-fit connections, as wrought copper fittings rely on proper joint preparation for a leak-free seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: CxC (Copper by Copper solder joint)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: External Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wrought Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: w 01378\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MUELLER STREAMLINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468207685938,"sku":"W 01378","price":77.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/W01378.jpg?v=1783914482","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/mueller-streamline-w-01378-copper-bushing-3x1-5-inch-cxc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
