1-1/4 inch x 1 inch Copper Reducing Adapter Female x Copper

1-1/4 inch x 1 inch Copper Reducing Adapter – Female Sweat x Copper

The 1-1/4 inch x 1 inch copper reducing adapter provides a durable and code-compliant transition between larger and smaller copper tube sizes in potable water and hydronic systems. Designed for long-term performance, this fitting features a female sweat (C x F) connection on one end and a copper tube (C x C) connection on the other, facilitating efficient adaptation where system design requires size reduction.

Manufactured from lead-free wrought copper and compliant with NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF 372 standards, this adapter is engineered for soldered connections in residential, commercial, and institutional water distribution and HVAC systems. The corrosion-resistant material supports excellent joint integrity and high-temperature resistance, making it suitable for both hot and cold water lines.
