Plumbing Reducing Tee for Copper Pipe
The Nibco 611RR is a sweat fitting tee made from wrot copper for potable water systems. It connects three copper tubes using cup connections on every outlet. The run measures 1 1/2 inches while each branch measures 1 1/4 inches, allowing a step-down in tube size.
Installers Reducing a Main Line to Smaller Branches
This fitting suits plumbers who need to split a 1 1/2 inch copper main into two 1 1/4 inch lines for fixtures or distribution. It is not for systems that require press, push-fit or threaded connections instead of soldered cup joints. Builders needing equal-sized outlets or a different tube material should select another fitting.
Three Copper Outlets with Two Reduced Branches
The tee comfortably handles the flow transition from a 1 1/2 inch run down to two 1 1/4 inch branches in residential or commercial potable water piping. It runs out when the design calls for a larger branch size, a different connection method or a material other than copper.

Questions about this item
What copper tube sizes must I already have to connect to the 1 1/2 in and 1 1/4 in ends of this reducing tee?
You need copper tubing with 1 1/2 in and 1 1/4 in nominal sizes; the tee's cup connections accept 1 5/8 in and 1 3/8 in outer diameters respectively for sweat soldering.
Will this wrot copper tee join cleanly to existing copper pipe of the same nominal sizes in my current plumbing?
Yes, the cup ends are made for standard copper tube dimensions so they solder directly to matching 1 1/2 in and 1 1/4 in pipe already in place.
After soldering, how can I confirm the 611RR tee is watertight on the potable water line?
Pressurise the system and inspect each of the three cup joints for leaks; a dry joint under pressure shows the sweat connections are sound.
