1 inch x 1 inch x 1/2 inch PEX Brass Reducing Insert Tee Crimp x Crimp x Crimp

Reliable Performance with the 1 Inch x 1 Inch x 1/2 Inch PEX Brass Reducing Insert Tee – Crimp Connection

Engineered for consistent performance in high-demand PEX systems, the 1 Inch x 1 Inch x 1/2 Inch Brass Reducing Insert Tee is a dependable solution for branching to a reduced pipe size. Its lead-free brass construction and precision-machined barbs ensure a secure, corrosion-resistant connection, ideal for potable water and hydronic applications.

Why It’s Built for Professionals

• ✅ Heavy-Duty Brass Construction – Manufactured from lead-free dezincification-resistant (DZR) brass for strength and compliance with potable water standards.
• ✅ Precision-Formed Barbs – Engineered to ANSI/NSF specifications for consistent fit with ASTM F1807 PEX crimp systems.
• ✅ Reduced Port Configuration – Enables system transitions without additional fittings, simplifying installation and minimizing leak points.

Contractor Benefits

• ✅ Faster Assembly – Designed for compatibility with standard crimp tools and copper crimp rings, minimizing setup time on-site.
• ✅ Code-Compliant – Complies with low-lead regulations per NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 for potable water use in all 50 states.
• ✅ Cost-Efficient System Design – Reducing tee reduces need for adapters and couplings, streamlining pipe layouts.

Installation Notes

This fitting is designed for use with ASTM F876 PEX tubing. Use with ASTM F1807-approved copper crimp rings and a calibrated crimp tool. Always verify alignment and crimp integrity to ensure proper sealing. Follow local code and pressure test installations before backfilling or concealment.

Applications

Commonly installed in residential and light commercial potable water systems, hydronic heating circuits, and retrofits where a reduction from 1-inch mains to 1/2-inch branches is required.
