Copper reducer for plumbing systems

The NIBCO U6002 is a wrot copper fitting designed to transition between 1 1/2 inch and 1 inch nominal tube sizes. It serves plumbers and maintenance technicians who need a reliable, pressure-rated reducer for water, gas or hydronic piping installations.

FTG by C connection simplifies joint layout

The fitting uses a male FTG end that inserts into a copper cup joint and a female C end that accepts a tube directly. This arrangement removes the need for a separate coupling when reducing from a fitting to a tube, cutting solder joints and potential leak paths.

ASME B16.22 construction handles wide temperature

Built to ASME/ANSI B 16.22, the reducer withstands up to 408 psi at 100 degrees F and operates from minus 20 to 400 degrees F. The wrot copper body resists corrosion and scales cleanly for strong, repeatable solder bonds in daily service.

Questions about this item

How often will the wrot copper reducer need replacement under normal conditions?

Wrot copper construction resists corrosion and scaling, so the reducer typically lasts the lifetime of the drainage system without scheduled replacement.

What is the maximum pressure the fitting can handle before it becomes the limiting factor?

The reducer is rated for 408 psi at 100 degrees F, making pressure the first limit reached under sustained high‑pressure use.

Does the copper fitting generate noticeable heat or noise when water runs continuously?

Copper conducts heat quickly but produces no mechanical noise; the fitting stays near water temperature and adds no audible sound during all‑day flow.
