Nibco PRESCOUP1 Copper Press Coupling 1 Inch

Product Description

The NIBCO PRESCOUP1 is a 1-inch copper press-by-press coupling with an integral stop, designed for use in pressurized water and hydronic piping systems. The stop feature ensures consistent pipe insertion depth, reducing installation error and improving joint reliability. This fitting connects two sections of copper tubing using a press-fit connection method, eliminating the need for open flame or solder. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial water distribution or heating systems.

This coupling is suited for new construction and retrofit applications where press-fit technology is preferred or required. Press fittings are commonly used in occupied buildings or tight spaces where torch work is restricted or impractical. The 1-inch size fits standard nominal copper tubing used in main distribution runs and branch supply lines.

Key Features

• Integral stop for consistent pipe insertion depth and repeatable joints
• Press-by-press end connections for flame-free installation
• 1-inch nominal size fits standard copper tubing
• Copper construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for potable water service
• Compatible with standard press tooling used in the trade

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting for use with 1-inch nominal copper tubing in residential and light commercial pressurized piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a compatible press tool and jaw set rated for the fitting size and connection type. Shut off and depressurize the system before pressing any fitting. Inspect the tubing end for roundness and remove all burrs before insertion. Press fittings must be fully seated against the integral stop prior to actuation of the press tool.
