It transitions from a 1-1\/2 inch FTG (fitting-to-go, or solder cup) end to a 1-1\/4 inch press end, allowing installers to step down pipe size within a copper distribution system. This fitting is suited for potable water, hydronic heating, and commercial plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this component when reducing line size between supply runs or at branch takeoffs without the need for open-flame soldering on the press end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducer is used in residential and light commercial copper piping systems where press-connect technology is specified or preferred. The FTG end accepts standard copper pipe for a solder joint, while the press end creates a watertight mechanical connection using a compatible press tool and jaw set. It is a practical fitting for retrofit work or new construction where both press and solder connections appear in the same system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper construction for corrosion resistance in potable water and hydronic systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch FTG (solder cup) inlet allows integration with standard soldered copper piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch press outlet for tool-free, flame-free mechanical connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration supports step-down transitions within copper distribution lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with press-connect tooling systems used in professional plumbing installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style press fitting for use in copper pipe systems requiring a reducing FTG-to-press connection at 1-1\/2 inches by 1-1\/4 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and local jurisdiction requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before beginning work. The FTG end requires standard soldering practice with appropriate flux and lead-free solder; the press end requires a manufacturer-approved press tool fitted with the correct jaw size. Do not press the fitting without verifying the pipe is fully seated to the marked depth line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: FTG (Solder Cup)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducer\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: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRESREDFTGC112114\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525090902322,"sku":"REDFTGC112114","price":27.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5e8e99e2101c3b8b4ff6893fa0af930a_ac2e2db7-31ea-416c-8563-4dc78c22c2b2.jpg?v=1785464092","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-presredftgc112114-copper-ftg-x-press-reducer","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
