3/4" Copper Tee – Wrot Copper, C x C x C

The 3/4" Copper Tee is a wrot copper fitting designed for distributing flow in three directions or combining flow from two in copper tubing systems. Manufactured from UNS C12200 copper, this tee features a sweat (cup) connection on each end and meets stringent industry performance and material standards. The uniform dimensions and internal finish ensure optimal solder distribution and minimal flow disruption.

Key Performance Attributes

• ✅ Material: Made from high-grade wrot copper (ASTM B75 Alloy C12200) for superior corrosion resistance and workability.
• ✅ Connection Type: Copper x Copper x Copper (C x C x C), solder joint configuration.
• ✅ Manufacturing Compliance: Conforms to ASME B16.22 and MSS SP-104 specifications for wrot copper fittings.
• ✅ Pressure Rating: Suitable for use in systems operating at up to 200 psi and 400°F when installed with ASTM B88 Type L or M copper tubing.
• ✅ Lead-Free: Certified to NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF/ANSI 372 for use in potable water systems.

Installation Requirements

This tee is designed for soldered copper systems and should be installed following standard practices for flux application and soldering:

• Ensure all pipe ends are reamed, deburred, and cleaned to bare metal before insertion.
• Use lead-free solder and approved flux in accordance with ASTM B813 and ASTM B32.
• Allow for sufficient spacing to accommodate joint expansion during heating.

Adherence to IPC, UPC, and local mechanical/plumbing codes is required for code-compliant installations.

Application Scope

• Potable water distribution systems
• Closed-loop hydronic heating circuits
• Chilled water and HVAC line transitions
• Drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems where soldered copper is permitted

Code Note

All copper fittings used in potable systems must be certified lead-free. This fitting meets the Safe Drinking Water Act standards and is acceptable in all jurisdictions requiring NSF 61 and NSF 372 listings.

Engineered for consistent performance and system reliability, the 3/4" Copper Tee is a standard component in both residential and commercial copper installations. Its wrot copper construction and precision-machined sweat ends ensure durable, leak-resistant connections in new and retrofit work alike.
