1-1/4 Inch x 1-1/4 Inch x 3/4 Inch Copper Reducing Tee – Solder Connection

The 1-1/4 inch Copper Reducing Tee is a wrot copper fitting designed to connect copper tubing of varying diameters in hydronic, potable water, or DWV (drainage, waste, and vent) systems. This tee configuration allows for a branch reduction from 1-1/4 inch to 3/4 inch, supporting directional transitions in supply lines or distribution networks.

Manufactured to ASME and ASTM standards, this fitting is suitable for soldered joint applications and meets performance criteria for both residential and commercial installations. The corrosion-resistant copper body supports long-term use in pressurized and non-pressurized environments.

Installation and Material Benefits

This reducing tee is precision-formed for dimensional accuracy, enabling strong, uniform solder joints that comply with code-mandated practices:

• ✅ Wrot Copper Construction Delivers resistance to dezincification and corrosion, supporting long service life in water systems.
• ✅ Reduced Branch Design Transitions mainline tubing to a smaller branch without added fittings, reducing material usage.
• ✅ Standard Solder Ends Designed for sweat connections using lead-free solder in compliance with potable water regulations.
• ✅ Compatible with Type L and M Copper Tube Supports broad system compatibility with common tubing types.

Specifications

• Material: Lead-free wrot copper
• Size: 1-1/4 inch x 1-1/4 inch x 3/4 inch
• Connection Type: Solder (sweat)
• Applicable Standards: ASME B16.22, ASTM B75/B88, NSF/ANSI 61, NSF/ANSI 372

Typical Applications

This copper reducing tee is used in both new construction and retrofit projects involving domestic water distribution, hydronic heating, or non-potable water systems. Its reducing branch allows for changes in flow direction or fixture feeds while minimizing the need for adapters or bushings.

Code and Regulatory Compliance

This fitting meets current lead-free requirements as outlined by federal legislation, including the Safe Drinking Water Act. It is certified for use in potable water systems across all jurisdictions where lead-free copper fittings are mandated.

The 1-1/4 x 1-1/4 x 3/4 inch Copper Reducing Tee is an industry-standard component for plumbing professionals requiring code-compliant fittings that offer consistent joint integrity, system compatibility, and long-term performance in variable operating environments.
