Potable-water tee for copper systems
This Nibco 705-LF tee joins a 3/4-inch copper line to a 1/8-inch FNPT branch and returns to 3/4-inch copper. Low-lead bronze construction meets potable-water requirements. The sweat cups and threaded centre suit residential and light-commercial plumbing.
Sweat cups and FNPT centre simplify layout
Two copper cups accept standard 3/4-inch tube for soldered joints while the 1/8-inch FNPT port takes threaded accessories such as gauges or vents. This mix reduces the need for separate adapters and keeps the piping run compact.
Rated 466 psi at 200 °F
The fitting handles typical domestic hot and cold pressures with ample margin. It is not intended for high-temperature hydronic loops exceeding 200 °F or for systems requiring larger branch ports.

Questions about this item
What is the maximum pressure the Nibco 705-LF tee can handle before the joint is stressed?
The low-lead bronze tee is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 466 psi, which is the limit reached first under sustained system load.
How much heat can the fitting take during continuous hot-water circulation?
It is rated to 200 degrees Fahrenheit, so prolonged operation at or below that temperature will not degrade the bronze body or the sweat joints.
Which copper tubing and pipe thread must already be on site to install this tee?
You need 3/4-inch copper tube for the two sweat ends and a 1/8-inch female NPT threaded connection for the branch outlet.
