Value Collection BDNA-15733 Copper Pipe Coupling 1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDNA-15733 is a wrot copper pipe coupling designed for joining two lengths of copper tubing in a sweat-solder (C x C) configuration. With a 1/2-inch fitting size and an outside diameter of 0.625 inches, this coupling is a standard component in residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic systems. Wrot copper construction provides a dense, uniform grain structure that supports reliable solder joints under normal operating pressures. Installation requires a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in most jurisdictions.

This coupling is used in 1/2-inch copper tubing runs for domestic water supply, hydronic heating distribution, and refrigeration or HVAC liquid-line applications where a copper-to-copper sweat connection is required. The C x C end connection accepts standard Type K, L, or M copper tubing prepared with emery cloth, flux, and a lead-free solder per applicable plumbing codes. It is suited for both new construction and retrofit work where a straight inline coupling is needed.

Key Features

• Wrot copper construction for consistent wall thickness and strong solder adhesion
• C x C end connections accept standard 1/2-inch copper tubing on both ends
• Outside diameter of 0.625 inches conforms to standard 1/2-inch copper fitting dimensions
• Compact form factor fits in tight spaces within wall cavities and mechanical chases
• Compatible with lead-free solder per current IPC and IAPMO plumbing code requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/2-inch copper tubing systems using sweat-solder (C x C) connections in plumbing, hydronic, or HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC or IAPMO standards. Shut off and drain the water supply or system before cutting into any existing line. Clean tubing ends with emery cloth and apply an appropriate flux before soldering to ensure a leak-free joint. Use lead-free solder as required by current potable-water plumbing codes.
