Drop Ear Tee for Potable Water Systems

The Nibco 7125LF-12 is a low lead bronze sweat fitting tee designed for potable water installations. It connects two half inch copper tube ends and one half inch female pipe thread with drop ear support for secure mounting.

Verify Copper Tube Size and Thread Compatibility

Confirm that the existing piping uses half inch copper tube with 5/8 inch outer diameter on both sweat ends. The branch side requires a matching half inch female pipe thread connection for proper assembly.

Rated for Continuous Pressure Up to 577 psi

The cast bronze body maintains structural integrity at the maximum operating pressure of 577 psi during sustained system operation. Low lead construction meets potable water requirements without degradation under constant load.

Questions about this item

Does the Nibco 7125LF-12 Drop Ear Tee include solder or flux for the sweat connections?

The fitting is supplied as a single low-lead bronze tee with cup ends for 1/2 in copper tube and a 1/2 in FNPT drop-ear outlet; solder and flux must be purchased separately.

How do I choose between the available connection configurations for this tee?

This model is fixed with 1/2 in cup connections on both run ends and a 1/2 in FNPT drop-ear branch; no alternative sizes or connection types are offered for the 7125LF-12.

Will the 577 psi rating hold up in a typical household plumbing system?

Yes, the 577 psi maximum operating pressure far exceeds normal residential supply pressure, so the tee provides ample safety margin for potable water installations.
