3" x 3" x 2-1/2" Copper Reducing Tee

This Legend Valve copper reducing tee connects three copper pipes in a C x C x C sweat configuration. It is designed for residential and commercial plumbing installations where a branch line reduces from a 3-inch main. The fitting is new and supplied directly from the manufacturer.

3-1/8" x 3-1/8" x 2-5/8" OD dimensions

The outside diameters measure 3-1/8 inches on the two run ends and 2-5/8 inches on the outlet. These dimensions determine compatibility with existing copper tubing and ensure the correct solder joint fit. Verify the OD against your pipe specifications before purchase.

Fits standard copper sweat connections

The tee requires flux and solder for installation into a copper piping system. It integrates directly into water supply lines without adapters, freeing up space compared to threaded alternatives. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

How does the 3 x 3 x 2-1/2 inch sizing translate when the tee is installed in a copper pipe run?

The tee accepts 3-inch copper on both straight ends and 2-1/2-inch copper on the branch; inside diameters match the stated sizes while outside diameters are 3-1/8 inch and 2-5/8 inch respectively.

What joint standard does the C x C x C designation imply for this copper reducing tee?

C x C x C means all three ports are female sweat sockets made for soldering directly to copper tube without adapters or threaded connections.

What clearance should I allow around the tee body for soldering and inspection?

The body spans the listed outside diameters, so plan enough space to apply heat and solder around each 3-1/8 inch and 2-5/8 inch socket without crowding adjacent fittings.
