Nibco Copper Pip Pipe Coupling with Stop 1/2 in Cxc

Product Description

The NIBCO copper pip is a 1/2-inch CxC copper pipe coupling with stop, designed to join two lengths of copper tubing in water supply and plumbing distribution systems. The fitting features solder cups on both ends and an internal dimple stop that ensures consistent, repeatable tube insertion depth during assembly. This lead-free construction meets modern potable water requirements. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in new construction and retrofit applications wherever a straight copper-to-copper connection is needed in residential or light commercial plumbing.

This coupling is suited for 1/2-inch copper tube in residential water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and light commercial plumbing installations. The CxC (copper by copper) end configuration accepts standard copper tubing on both ends, making it a straightforward choice for sweat-soldered piping runs. The dimple stop eliminates guesswork during tube insertion, supporting clean, consistent solder joints throughout a piping system.

Key Features

• 1/2-inch CxC configuration joins two copper tube ends in a single fitting
• Internal dimple stop sets consistent tube insertion depth for reliable solder joints
• Solder cup ends designed for sweat-soldered copper tube connections
• Lead-free construction suitable for potable water service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1/2-inch copper tube in residential and light commercial plumbing systems using sweat-solder CxC connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter using standard sweat-soldering tools including a torch, flux, and lead-free solder. Shut off the water supply and fully drain the affected piping before cutting or fitting. Follow local plumbing codes and ASTM standards for soldering procedures on potable water systems. Allow solder joints to fully cool before restoring water pressure.
