The fitting connects two equal 3\/8-inch runs while reducing the branch outlet to 1\/4 inch, making it a common choice when tapping a smaller line off a main run. All three connections are copper-to-copper (C x C x C), meaning each end accepts standard copper tubing joined by brazing or soldering. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this fitting type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is suited for domestic water distribution, hydronic heating branch lines, and refrigerant line splits where a 3\/8-inch main run requires a 1\/4-inch branch takeoff. Its all-copper construction supports use in both potable water and refrigerant applications where code and system design allow. The fitting is sold in a box quantity of 50 units, making it practical for contractors stocking job-site supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing tee configuration: 3\/8 x 3\/8 inch run with 1\/4-inch branch outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC x C x C connection type — all three ends accept sweat (solder or braze) joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAll-copper construction for corrosion resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBox quantity of 50 units for contractor and job-site use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact reducing geometry eliminates the need for additional bushings or adapters at the branch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for copper piping systems requiring a reducing tee in a C x C x C sweat configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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 the water supply or isolate the refrigerant circuit and recover any refrigerant before cutting into the line. Clean and flux all mating surfaces thoroughly before applying heat; overheating copper fittings can damage the joint integrity. Allow the joint to cool fully before restoring pressure to the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50 units\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: w40324\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NDL INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467363320114,"sku":"W40324","price":15.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313945200.jpg?v=1783902145","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ndl-industries-w40324-copper-reducing-tee-3-8x3-8x1-4-cxcxc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
