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

This Nibco 611 reducing tee joins three copper tubes using sweat connections. It is made from wrot copper and rated for potable water systems. Plumbers and DIY installers use it to branch a 1/2 inch line from a 1 inch main.

Verify tube sizes and soldering readiness

Confirm the existing copper tubes match the 1 1/8 inch, 5/8 inch and 5/8 inch outer diameters listed for sides A, B and C. Ensure you have flux, lead-free solder and a torch suitable for sweat fittings. The fitting is restricted from sale in certain states so check local codes before ordering.

Leak-free joints with minimal thermal stress

Properly soldered sweat joints create a permanent seal without gaskets or mechanical fasteners. The copper construction handles normal hot and cold water temperatures without degradation. No external power or moving parts are involved so noise and power draw are not applicable.
