Copper Reducing Tee for Potable Water
This NIBCO 611RR fitting joins three copper tubes in a reducing tee configuration. It is designed for sweat connections on potable water lines. The branch reduces from 3/8 inch to 1/8 inch nominal size while the run remains 3/8 inch. Wrot copper construction provides corrosion resistance for plumbing installations.
For Plumbers Reducing a 3/8 Inch Branch
This tee suits installers who need a 3/8 by 1/8 by 3/8 inch copper reducing tee for sweat joints. It is not for press-fit, push-fit or threaded pipe systems. Builders needing different nominal sizes or a straight tee should select another fitting. The all-cup connections require soldering tools and flux.
3/8 x 1/8 x 3/8 Inch Nominal Sizes
The fitting side dimensions are fixed at 3/8 inch nominal for the run and 1/8 inch nominal for the branch. These nominal sizes determine tube compatibility and cannot be altered. Verify the required nominal diameters before purchase to ensure the reducing tee matches the piping layout.

Questions about this item
What copper tube sizes does the 611RR reducing tee connect?
The tee joins 3/8 in, 1/8 in and 3/8 in copper tube sizes using sweat cup connections on all three sides
What tube outer diameters must the pipe ends match for this fitting?
The run ends require 1/2 in outer diameter tube and the branch requires 1/4 in outer diameter tube for proper sweat fit
How is the NIBCO 611RR installed and what step is often missed?
Clean tube ends and fitting cups, apply flux, assemble, then heat each joint evenly with a torch until solder flows completely around the cup
