It connects a 2-5\/8-inch fitting-end (FTG) to a 1-3\/8-inch copper socket (C), allowing a larger-diameter line to step down to a smaller-diameter run without an additional coupling. This bushing is a direct sweat-solder fitting, installed by plumbers and HVAC refrigeration technicians working on copper tubing systems in both residential and commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing bushing is suited for use in copper piping systems where a size reduction is required inline. Typical applications include refrigerant line sets, domestic water distribution, and hydronic piping where a male fitting end inserts into a female socket connection. The FTG x C configuration means the male end of the bushing slides into a standard copper fitting, while the female end accepts a standard copper tube or fitting of the smaller size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper construction provides reliable sweat-solder compatibility and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFTG x C connection type enables inline size reduction without additional fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-5\/8 inches x 1-3\/8 inches size transition covers a wide step-down in pipe diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBox quantity of 15 suits service contractors stocking for recurring repair work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing bushing profile keeps the assembly compact in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style sweat-fit replacement for copper reducing bushing applications requiring an FTG x C connection in 2-5\/8 inches x 1-3\/8 inches sizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician using standard sweat-soldering tools including a torch, solder, and flux rated for copper fittings. Always shut off and depressurize the system and purge any refrigerant or fluid from the line before cutting or fitting. Clean and flux all mating surfaces thoroughly before applying heat to ensure a leak-free joint. Work must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and, where refrigerant lines are involved, EPA Section 608 regulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBasic Fitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecific Fitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: FTG x C\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-5\/8 inches x 1-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\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: NDL INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: W1369\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NDL INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383979311410,"sku":"W1369","price":39.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312670947.jpg?v=1782613924","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ndl-industries-w1369-copper-reducing-bushing-ftg-x-c","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
