1/2 inch Copper Coupling with Stop Copper x Copper

1/2 inch Copper Coupling with Stop – Wrot Copper, C x C

The 1/2 inch Copper Coupling with Stop is a wrot copper fitting designed to connect two pieces of copper tubing in a straight line while maintaining directional alignment. The internal stop prevents over-insertion, allowing for consistent installation depth and solder distribution. This coupling is used in systems that require a mechanically sound and code-compliant joint between segments of copper tube.

Key Features

• ✅ Material: Manufactured from UNS C12200 wrot copper for uniform wall thickness and smooth interior bore.
• ✅ Connection Ends: Copper x Copper (C x C) sweat connection with solder cup on each end.
• ✅ Internal Stop: Built-in dimple stop ensures proper insertion depth and alignment of tubing segments.
• ✅ Compliance: Certified to meet ASME B16.22, NSF/ANSI 61, and NSF/ANSI 372 standards for use in potable water systems.
• ✅ Pressure Rating: Suitable for use in applications up to 200 psi when installed with ASTM B88 Type L or M tubing.

Installation Requirements

This coupling is intended for use with soldered copper tube connections. To ensure proper installation:

• Ream and clean pipe ends to remove burrs and oxidation.
• Apply lead-free flux conforming to ASTM B813 to mating surfaces.
• Use approved lead-free solder alloys for potable applications.
• Heat uniformly to draw solder through the joint and ensure a complete bond.

Always follow local and national plumbing code requirements, particularly those related to potable water systems and pressure ratings.

Typical Applications

• Potable water supply lines
• Hydronic heating loops
• Low-pressure HVAC piping
• Commercial and residential construction

Code and Certification

This fitting complies with the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) and is certified lead-free per NSF/ANSI 372. It is also approved for use in both new construction and retrofit work in jurisdictions that require third-party tested plumbing fittings.

Engineered to support long-term reliability in copper plumbing systems, the 1/2 inch Copper Coupling with Stop offers a secure, soldered joint that meets industry performance and safety requirements. Suitable for both vertical and horizontal pipe runs, this coupling is a standard component in professional-grade installations.
