Copper Reducing Tee 4 x 4 x 2-1/2
This Legend Valve copper reducing tee joins three copper pipes in a T configuration with sweat connections on all ends. The 4-inch by 4-inch by 2-1/2-inch sizing suits residential and commercial plumbing installations. It is supplied new for professional and DIY pipework projects.
Upgrade from smaller branch tees
The 2-1/2-inch branch replaces smaller-diameter outlets when a larger flow path is required for supply or distribution lines. The jump is worth it when the system design calls for a 2-1/2-inch connection rather than a reduced outlet. It eliminates the need for additional bushings or couplings.
Handles standard copper piping duties
The tee comfortably handles typical hot and cold water distribution within its rated pressure class for copper fittings. It runs out when system pressures exceed the fitting class or when non-copper pipe materials require different connection methods. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.
