Nibco W00960D 1/2 Inch Cxc Copper Coupling No Stop

Product Description

The NIBCO W00960D is a 1/2-inch copper-to-copper sweat coupling designed without an internal stop. This fitting accepts copper tubing on both ends and is joined using a sweat-solder method, making it a standard connection for copper water distribution and hydronic systems. The absence of an internal stop allows the fitting to slide freely along the pipe, which is useful when making repairs or joins where fixed-stop positioning is not practical. Plumbers and pipefitters use this style of coupling in both new construction and retrofit work.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications including domestic water supply, hot and cold distribution lines, and low-pressure hydronic heating systems. The CxC end configuration means both ends accept standard copper tube sized at 1/2 inch. Its compact size and light weight at 0.025 pounds make it easy to work into tight spaces within wall cavities and mechanical chases.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/2-inch copper water tube systems in residential and commercial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off the water supply and fully drain the line before cutting and fitting. Clean and flux all mating surfaces before applying heat; use lead-free solder where required by code for potable water systems. Allow the joint to cool completely before restoring system pressure.
