Dakota Sourcing 13021 90 Degree Copper Street Elbow

Product Description

The DAKOTA SOURCING 13021 is a 90-degree copper street elbow designed for use in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. This fitting measures 1/2 inch outer diameter with a 3/8 inch inner diameter and connects using a fitting-to-copper (FTG x C) configuration. The male fitting end inserts directly into a copper socket, eliminating the need for an additional coupling and saving space in tight installations. Copper construction ensures corrosion resistance and long service life in potable water, hydronic, and general plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This 90-degree street elbow is suited for directional changes in copper tubing runs where space constraints prevent the use of a standard elbow with two socket ends. The FTG x C end configuration allows it to slip directly into a standard copper fitting or valve body. Common applications include water supply lines, branch connections, and hydronic heating circuits in residential construction and light commercial plumbing. It is a standard copper sweat fitting soldered in place using lead-free solder per applicable plumbing codes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting or soldering. Clean all mating surfaces with emery cloth and apply flux before sweating the joint with lead-free solder. Do not apply heat directly to adjacent valves, fittings, or finished surfaces during soldering.
