  • Press connection speeds installation with no soldering required

Plumbing tee for PEX systems

The Legend Valve 450-885P tee connects a 1-1/4 inch press fitting to a 1/2 inch F1960 PEX branch. It is designed for installers building potable-water distribution networks using press-to-connect and F1960 expansion methods. The fitting carries a no-lead designation for compliant installations. Buyers who need a different branch size or a threaded connection will require another fitting.

Thermal noise and power profile

This brass fitting operates passively within the plumbing system and generates no noise or heat of its own. Pressure and temperature limits follow the rating of the connected PEX tubing and press tools rather than the tee itself. No electrical power is drawn, so circuit sizing and energy costs are unaffected by this component.

Included accessories and compliance notes

The package contains only the tee fitting; no press rings, expansion sleeves or tools are supplied. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains a chemical known to the state to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Orders of $75 or more ship free directly from the manufacturer.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1-1/4" press connection correctly?

Use a calibrated press tool with the correct jaw size for 1-1/4" tubing. The step often missed is verifying the press indicator ring is fully engaged before pressurising the system.

What maintenance will the no-lead brass tee require over time?

Periodically inspect the press joints for leaks or corrosion. The F1960 PEX branch should be checked for fitting integrity during routine plumbing inspections. No internal serviceable parts exist.

What pressure or temperature limit is reached first under sustained use?

The assembly is rated to the pressure and temperature limits of the connected 1-1/4" press tubing and 1/2" F1960 PEX pipe. The tee body itself does not impose a lower limit.
