Typical use cases
- Joining or extending copper linesets
- Repair work where brazing isn’t practical
- System modifications and component swaps
Good to know
- Match the fitting size to the outside diameter of the copper tube.
- Always deburr and prepare the tube ends for a clean, reliable seal.
- Torque to the manufacturer’s guidance for best results.
