Connect copper tubing to female threaded pipe with this copper sweat x FPT (Female Pipe Thread) adapter. This reducing adapter joins a 1/2" copper sweat socket to a 3/8" FPT connection for a secure, leak-free joint when properly soldered.

• Copper sweat socket accepts 1/2" nominal copper tubing
• 3/8" FPT threads (ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 NPT taper) connect to male threaded pipe or fittings
• Wrought copper construction conforms to ASME B16.22 for solder-joint pressure fittings
• Compatible with Type K, L, and M copper tube per ASTM B88
• Suitable for potable water, HVAC, hydronic heating, and general plumbing systems
• Solder-joint end designed for use with lead-free solder in drinking water applications

Tip: Clean both the tube end and fitting socket with emery cloth, apply flux, then heat the fitting evenly with a torch until solder is drawn into the joint.
