COPPER 45 DEGREE SWEAT ELBOW 3/4"A wrought copper 45 degree elbow that changes the direction of a copper line. Both ends are female sweat cups (C x C), so a length of tubing seats into each side and the joints are soldered in place. The 45 degree turn offsets a run around an obstruction with less flow resistance than a pair of sharper bends.
- Nominal size: 3/4" (7/8" OD)
- Connection: C x C (female sweat cup x female sweat cup)
- Angle: 45 degrees
- Material: lead-free wrought copper
- Compatible with ASTM B88 copper tube Types K, L, and M
- Manufactured to ASME B16.22 for wrought copper solder-joint pressure fittings
- For potable water, hydronic heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration lines
Tip: Clean both pipe ends and both cups until bright, apply a thin, even coat of lead-free flux, and heat the fitting so the solder wicks into the joint.
