Use Considerations
This product is suitable for vertical and horizontal installations in commercial, industrial, and residential settings. Its straight length format reduces the need for intermediate joints, minimizing potential leak points.
Type L copper provides greater wall thickness than Type M, offering higher pressure ratings and improved longevity in demanding environments. Compatible with soldering, brazing, or mechanical press-fit systems depending on the installation specifications.
Professional Application Notes
Handling: Maintain straightness and protect tube ends during transport and storage.
Joining Methods: Follow manufacturer guidelines for brazed or soldered connections. Deburr and clean cut ends prior to fitting.
Code Compliance: Installation must conform to local plumbing and mechanical code requirements.
Inspection: Confirm all tube markings to verify type and compliance prior to use.
