With a C x C x C (sweat) connection type and a 3\/8 x 3\/8 x 1\/2 inch configuration, this tee accepts solder connections on all three ports. The run measures 3\/8 inch on both ends, and the branch outlet steps up to 1\/2 inch, making it suited for applications where a larger supply feeds into or draws from a smaller distribution line. Plumbers and HVAC technicians rely on this type of fitting for clean, leak-free brazed or soldered joints in both hot and cold water and refrigerant piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is used in residential and light commercial copper piping installations where a branch connection requires a size transition. Typical applications include domestic hot and cold water distribution, hydronic heating systems, and refrigerant line sets where a 1\/2 inch main line must tee off to 3\/8 inch branch runs. The sweat connection style requires standard copper tube preparation and solder or brazing filler material appropriate to the service application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReducing tee configuration: 3\/8 x 3\/8 x 1\/2 inches for inline size transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC x C x C sweat connections on all three ports for soldered or brazed joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper construction provides corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity suited to plumbing and HVAC use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact tee geometry fits standard rough-in spaces in residential and light commercial installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 3\/8 inch and 1\/2 inch copper tubing used in residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC or IPC guidelines where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before cutting into existing piping. Clean all tube ends and fitting sockets with emery cloth or a tube cleaning brush, apply flux, and solder or braze per the filler material manufacturer specifications and the service requirements of the system. Avoid overheating the fitting, which can damage the socket and result in a failed joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: C x C x C (Sweat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 x 3\/8 x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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: NDL INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: W4005\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NDL INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383872946482,"sku":"W4005","price":19.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312670966.jpg?v=1782610178","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ndl-industries-w4005-copper-reducing-tee-3-8x3-8x1-2-cxcxc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
