Copper Male Reducing Adapter - Cast - Products
A cast copper male reducing adapter transitions soldered copper tube to a male pipe thread of a different size, combining a size change and a solder-to-thread transition in one fitting. Moonshine Bath stocks cast copper male reducing adapters in common size combinations.
One fitting handles both the reduction and the thread transition. Each adapter ships free across the USA, Canada and Mexico, dispatches within 24 hours on weekday orders before 2 PM EST, and carries our price match plus 10 percent beat guarantee.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do I need a reducing male adapter?
Use one when the copper tube size differs from the threaded connection size, for example soldering 3/4-inch copper but threading into a 1/2-inch valve. It reduces and transitions in a single fitting.
Do I need thread sealant?
Yes. Apply PTFE tape or pipe-thread sealant to the male threads before tightening into the female component for a leak-free joint.
