How a Copper x Female Adapter Works
The copper sweat socket fits over properly sized copper tube and is soldered using approved preparation, flux, and soldering procedures. The female NPT end then connects to a compatible male-threaded pipe, nipple, valve, equipment connection, or fitting.
Connection Orientation
The copper end is a female sweat socket that accepts copper tube. The opposite end contains female NPT threads designed to accept a compatible male-threaded component.
