Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the fitting, cut your copper pipe to the required length and ensure the ends are de-burred using a file or reamer. Clean both the outside of the pipe and the inside of the fitting socket with abrasive mesh. Apply a thin, even coat of soldering flux to both surfaces, insert the pipe into the fitting, and apply heat uniformly using a torch. Once the flux bubbles, touch your solder wire to the joint opening and allow the capillary action to draw the molten solder inside. Allow the joint to cool naturally without moving it. Post-installation, it is essential to wipe away excess flux residue to prevent future corrosion. This product is strictly for use with copper piping systems.
