Anderson Metals Corp 750069-1008 Brass 90 Degree Elbow

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 750069-1008 is a 90-degree brass elbow fitting designed to connect 5/8-inch compression tubing to a 1/2-inch male pipe thread (MPT) port. It provides a reliable direction change in a pressurized water or gas supply line without the need for soldering or brazing. The all-brass construction resists corrosion and holds up under normal service pressure. This fitting is lead-free compliant and meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for potable water installations where lead content regulations apply. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers.

This elbow is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a compression-to-male-pipe-thread transition is needed at a 90-degree angle. Common scenarios include connecting copper or compatible soft tubing to valve bodies, manifolds, or threaded equipment ports. It is sold in bulk packs of 5 units, making it practical for service vans and supply stock. The compression end accepts standard 5/8-inch tubing, and the threaded end connects to any standard 1/2-inch NPT male port.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service fitting for residential and commercial plumbing systems requiring a 5/8-inch compression to 1/2-inch male pipe thread 90-degree transition.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before making or breaking any compression connections. Ensure tubing ends are cleanly cut and deburred before inserting into the compression fitting to achieve a leak-free seal. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
