Streamline KS06100 – 3/4" x 100' Type K Soft Copper Tubing for Water Service and Distribution
The Streamline KS06100 is a 100-foot coil of 3/4" nominal Type K copper tubing in soft temper, designed for use in underground water service lines, interior potable water distribution, and other high-pressure plumbing applications. Manufactured in accordance with ASTM B88, this tubing features a 7/8" outside diameter and 0.065" wall thickness, offering superior strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance.
Type K soft copper is commonly specified for applications that require bending and long continuous runs with minimal fittings. It is NSF 61 certified for use in potable water systems and color-coded green for quick identification on the job site.

Key Features:
Heavy-Wall Copper – Type K offers the thickest wall of all copper grades for pressure applications
Soft Coil Format – Allows flexible installation with fewer joints, reducing labor time and leak potential
Corrosion Resistant – Copper resists scaling, pitting, and internal buildup common in water supply systems
Code Compliant – Meets requirements of national and local plumbing codes for buried and concealed piping
Installation Considerations:
Proper installation requires conformance with local code and best practices, including appropriate burial depth, bedding, and support. Soft copper must be bent to manufacturer-specified minimum radii to maintain tube integrity and flow characteristics. All joints should be made using approved joining methods appropriate for the system’s pressure and temperature requirements.
