4 x 2-1/2 Reducing Copper Coupling
This copper reducing coupling connects a 4-inch fitting end to a 2-1/2-inch copper pipe end for plumbing installations. The transparent finish shows the bare metal surface for visual inspection of joint quality. It is suited for residential or commercial water supply systems requiring a step-down transition.
Fitting-by-copper design for solder joints
The Ftg x C configuration means one end slides into a fitting hub while the other accepts a copper tube directly, so only one solder joint is needed per connection. Copper construction resists corrosion and handles typical hot and cold water temperatures. The reducing shape saves space compared with separate reducer and coupling combinations.
Verify tube and fitting diameters before ordering
Confirm that your existing system uses 4-inch and 2-1/2-inch nominal copper sizes matching the fitting and tube ends respectively. Ensure local codes permit copper reducing couplings for the intended application and that you have appropriate flux and lead-free solder. This product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
What copper pipe sizes does the 4 x 2-1/2 reducing coupling join?
It connects a 4 inch fitting end to a 2-1/2 inch copper tube end for a straight reduction in the line.
What are the exact outside diameters I need to clear for this fitting?
The fitting end measures 4-1/8 inch OD and the copper end measures 2-5/8 inch OD, so allow that clearance in the wall or joist bay.
How is this Legend Valve 450-448 coupling installed and what step causes leaks?
Clean both ends, apply flux, insert the copper tube fully into the C end, then sweat the joint; the common mistake is not pushing the tube to the stop before heating.
