Product Identification

This Nibco 714RR-LF is a cast bronze reducing tee designed for potable water systems. It connects 3/4 inch copper tubing on the run with a 1/2 inch FNPT branch using sweat and threaded connections respectively. The fitting suits plumbers and contractors installing or repairing residential and commercial water lines.

Installation Checks

Verify that your piping uses 3/4 inch copper tube with a 7/8 inch outer diameter for the sweat ends and a 1/2 inch FNPT thread for the branch connection. Ensure the system pressure does not exceed 466 psi and the water temperature stays within 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Confirm local codes permit cast bronze fittings for potable water before proceeding.

Thermal and Pressure Limits

The cast bronze body withstands continuous operating temperatures up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit and pressures up to 466 psi without deformation. Under normal potable water conditions the fitting runs cool and silent, adding no mechanical noise to the plumbing system. Power draw is not applicable to this passive component.

Questions about this item

Does the box include the copper pipe and solder needed to sweat the 3/4" ends?

The fitting itself is a cast bronze reducing tee with two 3/4" cup ends and one 3/4" FNPT branch. Copper tube, flux and solder are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I choose this 3/4" x 1/2" x 3/4" reducing tee or a straight tee for my supply line?

This reducing tee has a 3/4" FNPT branch (Side B) while the run ends (Side A and C) are 3/4" cup for 7/8" OD copper. Choose it when you need to transition from a 3/4" copper run to a 3/4" threaded outlet.

What does the 466 psi rating mean for a typical home plumbing system?

The 466 psi maximum operating pressure is well above normal municipal supply pressures, so the fitting will handle standard residential service with a large safety margin.
