Copper K-Type Tubing for Potable Water
Mueller Industries KH10005 is straight copper tubing manufactured to Type K dimensions for potable water systems. The seamless C12200 copper construction meets ASTM B88 and NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 standards for safe drinking water conveyance. It arrives in a five-foot straight length with a one-inch inside diameter and 0.065-inch wall thickness.
Pressure and Temperature Limits
The tubing is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 524 psi at 200 degrees Fahrenheit and a maximum operating temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit. These limits define the safe envelope for hot and cold water distribution in residential and commercial installations. Exceeding either value risks joint failure or accelerated material degradation.
Capacity and Installation Headroom
The one-eighth-inch outside diameter and hard temper provide rigid, kink-resistant runs for main supply lines and underground service entries. The Type K wall handles high-pressure municipal feeds and thermal cycling without deformation. It is not suited for tight-radius bends, thin-wall fittings, or applications requiring annealed tubing for field bending.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 5 ft straight length or look for a different length?
This listing is for a single 5 ft straight length of Type K copper tube; choose it when your run fits a 5 ft piece, otherwise source the length your layout requires.
What does the 524 psi at 200 °F rating mean once the tube is installed?
It means the tube can safely handle up to 524 psi water pressure at 200 °F, covering typical hot-water distribution and hydronic heating conditions.
Which standards does the ASTM B88 / NSF 61 tube meet and what do they cap in practice?
ASTM B88 governs seamless Type K copper dimensions and temper, while NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and NSF 372 certify the tube for potable-water contact and lead-free compliance.
