Sweat Fitting Tee for Tubing Systems

The ZORO SELECT 24W589 is a cast copper tee designed for sweat connections in residential and commercial tubing systems. It features two cup ends sized for 1/2 inch nominal copper tube and one female NPT threaded branch. The fitting arrives precleaned, sandblasted and individually bagged for immediate installation.

Rolled Center Stop Controls Insertion Depth

A built-in rolled center stop on the tee body provides a positive depth reference when inserting the copper tubes. This mechanical stop ensures consistent joint depth on both cup ends without relying on installer judgment alone. The feature helps maintain uniform solder gaps for reliable, leak-free sweat joints.

Connects 1/2 Inch Copper Tube to 1/2 Inch FNPT

The tee joins two lengths of 1/2 inch nominal copper tubing (5/8 inch outer diameter) to a 1/2 inch female pipe thread outlet. No additional adapters are required to transition from sweat to threaded connections. The bronze finish resists corrosion in potable water and hydronic heating applications.

Questions about this item

How does the 1/2 inch nominal copper size translate when I solder this tee into my tubing system?

The 1/2 inch nominal copper size matches a 5/8 inch tube outer diameter on the sweat ends, so the fitting slips over standard 1/2 inch copper tube for a soldered joint.

What does the FNPT connection on the third port mean for thread compatibility?

The FNPT port provides a 1/2 inch female National Pipe Thread taper connection, accepting a matching male NPT pipe or adapter for a sealed threaded joint.

What clearance do I need to fit this tee with its centre stop into the pipe run?

The rolled centre stop sits inside the fitting body, so the tee occupies the same linear space as a straight coupling between the two sweat ends.
