Product Identity
The Jay R. Smith Mfg. Co 520-T-B is a water hammer arrestor designed for light commercial plumbing systems.

Suitability
This arrestor suits installers who need a code-compliant device for copper piping in commercial bathware applications. It operates across a temperature range of 33 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Buyers requiring a different pipe diameter or a sweat connection type should look at other models. The product is not intended for residential-only installations that specify alternative standards.
