Sioux Chief 638WG212E 1/2" F1960 x 12" Type L Copper Stub Out with Ear

The Sioux Chief 638WG212E is a 1/2" F1960 x 12" stub out built from Type L copper, engineered to bring a PEX expansion (F1960) connection up through the subfloor for closet or lavatory rough-in work. The integrated ear bracket secures the stub out to framing for a stable, code-conscious rough-in point, and the female end accepts sweat, push-fitting or compression valves so a plumber can finish out with whichever connection type is on hand. The fitting is NL/DZR rated - no-lead and dezincification-resistant - for potable-water rough-in behind the wall or under the floor.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 1/2" F1960 PEX expansion connection x 12" overall length, sized for standard rough-in stub-outs.
  • Durable Construction: Type L copper tube body for a solid, long-lasting behind-the-wall or under-floor connection.
  • Multi-Valve Compatible: The stub-out end accepts sweat, push-fitting and compression valves, giving the installer flexibility to finish with the connection type already on the truck.
  • Bracketed Ear: Built-in ear bracket for anchoring the stub out to framing when stubbing up through the floor for water closets or lavatories.
  • No-Lead/DZR: NL/DZR construction supports potable-water rough-in applications.
  • Not for Permanent Air Chambers: Rated for use as a rough-in stub out only - not intended as a permanent air chamber.

Sioux Chief 638WG212E – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What kind of valve can I put on the end of a 1/2 inch copper stub out with ear?
The open copper end of the 638WG212E accepts a sweat valve, a push-fit valve, or a compression stop, so you can finish out with whatever stop is on the truck. The tube is Type L copper, so it solders cleanly and holds up to a compression ferrule being set on it.
2) What is the ear bracket on the Sioux Chief 638WG212E for?
The ear is a built-in mounting bracket that screws to framing, holding the stub out plumb and rigid where it comes up through the subfloor for a water closet or lavatory supply. Without it you would be strapping loose tube, and the stop would move every time the handle is turned.
3) Is this copper stub out safe for potable water lines?
Yes. The 638WG212E is NL/DZR, meaning no-lead and dezincification resistant, which is what is required for potable water rough-in. It is made in the United States.
4) Is 12 inches enough stub out length for a toilet or lav rough-in?
Twelve inches is the overall length of the 638WG212E, which is the standard stub-up for closet and lavatory supply points coming through the subfloor or out of the wall. You trim the copper to your finished stop height, so the 12 inch length gives working slack above the plate.
5) How does the Sioux Chief 638WG212E ship for a multi-unit job?
It comes 50 each per carton, which suits stocking out a run of apartment or new-construction rough-in points in one order rather than buying singles.
6) Why Type L copper instead of a plastic or brass stub out?
Type L is the heavier wall drawn copper tube used for pressure water lines, so the 638WG212E gives you a stub out you can solder a sweat stop onto directly and that tolerates being bumped during drywall and finish work. A plastic stub-out would not take a sweat valve at all.
