Copper tube for potable water

This straight length of hard-drawn copper tubing meets ASTM B88, NSF 372 and NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 for drinking-water systems. It is seamless C12200 copper with a 3/4 in outside diameter, .625 in inside diameter and .042 in wall thickness. The five-foot stick is rated to 505 psi at 200 °F and a maximum of 400 °F.

Suits plumbers and DIY installers on small runs

The hard temper holds shape for exposed supply lines to sinks, toilets or ice-makers. It is not for installers who need long coils for fewer joints, who require soft temper for tight bends without fittings, or who are working on gas, high-pressure steam or drain-waste-vent systems that demand different materials or ratings.

Five-foot stick with 505 psi headroom

The 5/8 in copper tube size and Type L wall handle typical residential hot and cold distribution with ample pressure margin. It runs out when a project calls for extended coil lengths, soft temper for sharp radius bends, larger diameters for main lines, or service temperatures above 400 °F.

Questions about this item

What copper tube size and type must my fittings match for the LH05005 tubing?

The tubing is copper tube size 5/8 in and Type L, so fittings must be sized for 5/8 in CTS Type L.

Will the 0.042 in wall thickness handle the same pressures as my existing Type M lines?

Type L wall is thicker than Type M, and the tubing is rated 505 psi at 200 Degrees F, so it meets or exceeds typical Type M pressure needs.

How can I verify the tubing meets potable-water standards after installation?

The tubing carries NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and NSF 372 certifications, which are marked on the tube for potable-water compliance.
