Construction Details
SCI Press Fig. SP604 is a copper press coupling with an internal tube stop designed to join two compatible copper tubing sections in a straight piping run.
SCI Press Copper Fittings are intended for ASTM B88 Types K, L, and M hard copper tubing and compatible soft copper tubing within the manufacturer's specified range.
The internal stop assists with tube positioning while the press connections incorporate EPDM sealing elements and use mechanical press technology instead of conventional soldering or brazing.
