Copper reducing tee SANHA 5130 28 x 18 x 28 mm

Copper reducing tee SANHA 5130 28 x 18 x 28 mm is a three-way copper fitting designed to connect two same-diameter pipes with a smaller-diameter branch. Manufactured by SANHA to industry standards, the fitting is intended for use in potable water, heating and refrigeration systems where soldered or brazed copper joints are required. Its reducing configuration allows a smooth transition between pipe sizes while maintaining flow characteristics and mechanical stability.

Advantages

The SANHA copper reducing tee provides corrosion-resistant copper construction and precise dimensions for reliable joints. Its design supports conventional soldering and brazing techniques, delivering durable, leak-resistant connections when installed correctly. The reducing branch minimizes turbulence and pressure loss compared with abrupt fittings, and the robust material is compatible with common copper piping systems used in residential and commercial installations.

Suitable for

• Potable water distribution networks
• Central heating systems and radiators
• Refrigeration and cooling circuits
• Plumbing installations requiring transition between pipe sizes

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Configuration: reducing tee with two equal ends and one reduced branch
• Dimensions: 28 mm x 18 mm x 28 mm (two main run ends and one branch)
• Connection method: intended for soldering or brazing
• Typical applications: potable water, heating, refrigeration

How to use

Prepare the copper pipes by cutting square, deburring and cleaning the joint surfaces and the fitting sockets. Apply appropriate flux for soldering or brazing, assemble the pipes into the tee ensuring full insertion, and heat the joint evenly until the filler material flows to form a continuous fillet. Allow the assembly to cool naturally before testing. Follow local plumbing codes and manufacturer guidelines for joint preparation, heating temperatures and filler material selection.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable flux and filler alloy compatible with drinking water systems where applicable, and ensure proper ventilation when brazing. Inspect joints for complete capillary action and perform pressure tests according to relevant standards before placing the system into service.
