Copper Bullhead Tee 21
This NIBCO copper bullhead tee joins copper tubing in potable water systems. All three connections use sweat cup ends for soldered joints. The fitting body is made from wrot copper. It is supplied new for plumbing installations.
Suits installers needing a 21 bullhead tee
Installers who require a different copper tube size combination should look at other fittings. Systems that use press, push-fit or threaded connections cannot use this sweat fitting. The fitting is not intended for gas or fuel lines.
Branch size 21 defines the part
The branch outlet is copper tube size 21 while both run outlets are copper tube size 2. This single sizing difference determines whether the tee matches the piping layout. Verify the tube sizes before purchase.

Questions about this item
How much flow restriction does the 2-1/2 inch bullhead branch add compared to the 2 inch runs?
The 2-1/2 inch branch has a larger 2-5/8 inch outer diameter than the 2-1/8 inch run diameters, reducing restriction when tying in a larger supply line.
Does the wrot copper fitting introduce noise or heat when water runs continuously?
Copper fittings are passive components; they add no mechanical noise and do not generate heat beyond the water temperature itself.
What copper tubing and tools are needed to install this tee?
You need 2 inch and 2-1/2 inch copper tube, flux, lead-free solder, a propane or MAPP torch, and emery cloth or a fitting brush for cleaning.
