Dakota Sourcing 13014 Copper 90 Long Elbow 5/8 in Od

Product Description

The DAKOTA SOURCING 13014 is a 90-degree long-radius copper elbow fitting with a 5/8-inch outer diameter and 1/2-inch inner diameter, configured for copper-to-copper (C x C) sweat connections. Long-radius elbows reduce turbulence and pressure drop compared to short-radius fittings, making them a preferred choice where flow efficiency matters. This fitting is used in refrigeration, HVAC, and plumbing lines where a smooth directional change is required. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians using standard soldering practices.

This copper elbow is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving refrigerant lines, hydronic systems, or domestic water piping. The C x C sweat-end configuration requires both ends to be cleaned, fluxed, and soldered per standard trade practice. Long-radius geometry is particularly useful in tight routing situations where maintaining flow velocity and reducing fitting-induced resistance are priorities.

Key Features

• 90-degree long-radius geometry reduces pressure drop and turbulence at the turn
• C x C sweat-end connections for reliable solder joints
• 5/8-inch OD with 1/2-inch ID for precise fit on matching copper tubing
• Copper construction provides corrosion resistance and compatibility with refrigerant and water service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 1/2-inch nominal copper tubing in sweat-connection configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician following applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the line before cutting or fitting. Clean tubing ends and fitting cups thoroughly, apply flux, and solder using appropriate wire solder rated for the application. Avoid overheating the fitting during soldering to prevent distortion of the fitting cup.
