It features a fitting-to-male (FTG x M) end configuration, allowing a socket-end connection on one side and a male solder-end on the other. The fitting measures 1\/2 inch on both ends, with an outside diameter of 5\/8 inch on the FTG end and 1\/2 inch on the male end. Fabricated from wrot copper, this adapter provides a dense, uniform grain structure well-suited to pressure applications and repeated thermal cycling in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is used in copper water supply lines, hydronic heating loops, and refrigeration or HVAC copper piping where a transition between a socket fitting and a male solder end is required. Its compact 1\/2 x 1\/2 inch size makes it a standard-use fitting in residential water distribution systems, particularly at fixture connections, valve tie-ins, and branch-line transitions. The FTG x M configuration is commonly used when connecting into an existing copper run without additional couplings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrot copper construction for high-density, pressure-rated performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFTG x M end connection for direct sweat-solder installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch x 1\/2 inch fitting size suits standard residential supply line work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 5\/8 inch on FTG end and 1\/2 inch on male end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.01 pounds, minimizing load on finished piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1\/2 inch copper sweat-solder plumbing systems using FTG x M adapter connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line and drain the pipe fully before soldering. Clean all mating surfaces with emery cloth and apply appropriate flux before sweating the joint. Avoid applying excessive heat to the fitting, as overheating wrot copper can compromise joint integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wrot Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: FTG x M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch (FTG end) x 1\/2 inch (M end)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BDNA-15633\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691909808434,"sku":"BDNA-15633","price":67.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/27f3a482d3c8d10da6dd01b689b144c7.jpg?v=1788290964","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-bdna-15633-copper-pipe-adapter-1-2in-ftg-x-m","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
