The 15mm × 8mm End Feed Long Tail Fitting Reducer is an internal reducer with an extended 15mm spigot (the long tail) that pushes inside a 15mm fitting, and an 8mm socket that takes 8mm copper tube. The longer tail gives extra reach into the fitting and a little adjustment on awkward or deep joints. Joined with a soldered capillary joint and suitable for hot and cold water and central heating. Manufactured from copper to BS EN 1254-1 and fits copper tube to BS EN 1057.

Also known as: long tail reducer, long fitting reducer, extended reducer, long spigot reducer, internal reducer, male reducer, 15-8mm long reducer, endfeed long tail reducer.
