The fitting uses an FTG (fitting-to-groove) end on one side and a press connection on the other, eliminating the need for open-flame soldering at the reducer joint. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit work where flame-free connections are required or preferred. Copper construction provides corrosion resistance and long service life in standard potable water and hydronic applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reducer fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a pipe run steps down from a 1-inch main to a 1\/2-inch branch or terminal connection. The press end accepts a standard press tool and compatible press sleeve or jaw set, making installation fast in tight spaces. The FTG end is sized to receive standard copper tubing for a secure, leak-free joint. It is commonly installed in domestic hot and cold water distribution systems, radiant heating loops, and hydronic fan coil connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper construction for corrosion resistance in potable water and hydronic systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFTG x Press end configuration allows connection without open-flame soldering at the press joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-inch inlet to 1\/2-inch outlet reduces flow from main to branch lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePress connection compatible with standard press tooling and jaw sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact fitting design suits installations in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation copper press reducer for residential and light commercial plumbing systems using standard 1-inch and 1\/2-inch copper tubing and press-fit piping components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber following local plumbing code requirements and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting into any existing line. The press end requires a compatible press tool with the correct jaw or collar size for the fitting diameter. Inspect the press sleeve or O-ring for damage before making the connection, and verify the press joint is fully engaged before restoring system pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: FTG x Press\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: PRESREDFTGC112\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525448270130,"sku":"REDFTGC112","price":17.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5e8e99e2101c3b8b4ff6893fa0af930a_9eefbbf7-3843-450d-8919-6b801b2d134d.jpg?v=1785474009","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-presredftgc112-copper-press-reducer-1x1-2-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
