NIBCO 735-LF Bronze Cross Fitting
This NIBCO 735-LF cross fitting is made from low-lead bronze for potable water systems. It provides a four-way connection point with cup ends on all sides for sweat soldering. The fitting is designed to join copper tubing in plumbing installations. It meets low-lead requirements for drinking water applications.
Plumbing Installers and DIYers
This fitting suits plumbers and homeowners who need to branch a 1/2 inch copper line in four directions using sweat connections. It is not for users who require threaded, press-fit, or push-to-connect ends. It is also not for systems that use pipe sizes other than 1/2 inch copper tube. Builders needing a different configuration such as a tee or elbow should look elsewhere.
1/2 Inch Copper Tube Size on All Ports
The critical specification is the 1/2 inch copper tube size on every port with cup connections for sweat soldering. This determines whether the fitting matches the tubing in your project. Verify that your system uses 1/2 inch copper tube and sweat joining before purchase.

Questions about this item
What copper tube size must the existing piping be for the 735-LF cross to accept it on all four cup connections?
Each cup connection is sized for 1/2 in copper tube, so the pipe on all four branches must be 1/2 in CTS.
Can the low-lead bronze cross be joined to older standard bronze fittings in the same potable water system?
Yes, the low-lead bronze material is compatible with existing bronze fittings and approved for potable water use.
After soldering, what visual check confirms the 735-LF cross is correctly installed?
A continuous fillet of solder visible around all four cup joints indicates a proper sweat connection.
