No open flame is required for installation, making it a fast, reliable alternative to soldered fittings in both new construction and retrofit applications. The fitting is machined from copper to ensure durability and compatibility with potable water systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters use this fitting when transitioning between two common pipe diameters in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial water distribution systems where a press-style connection is preferred or required. It is commonly installed in tight spaces or areas where torch work is restricted, such as near insulation, wood framing, or fire-rated assemblies. The press-by-press end configuration allows for tool-based crimping on both sides of the fitting without the need for soldering equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePress-fit on both ends eliminates the need for open-flame soldering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper construction for corrosion resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch inlet to 1\/2-inch outlet for in-line pipe diameter reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard press tooling used in the trade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for potable water and general plumbing distribution lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation copper press reducing coupling for residential and light commercial plumbing systems using 3\/4-inch and 1\/2-inch press-fit pipe connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed plumber using a calibrated press tool with the correct jaw size for each end of the fitting. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before installation. Verify that pipe ends are clean, deburred, and fully seated into the fitting socket before pressing. Follow local plumbing codes, including applicable IPC requirements, for press-fit fitting installation and inspection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Press x Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRESRED3412\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524878991666,"sku":"RED3412","price":22.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8fd53e8f3d64addb3bf65a5bf3ef8b45_402cb7ce-b083-4bd1-86bf-a0d4df9ac117.jpg?v=1785460456","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-presred3412-copper-press-reducing-coupling-3-4x1-2","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
