Directedair da019lt-03 Long Radius Elbow 1/4 in Copper

Product Description

The DIRECTEDAIR da019lt-03 is a long radius 90-degree elbow fitting manufactured from copper for use in refrigerant, HVAC, and plumbing line sets. The long radius geometry reduces flow restriction and turbulence compared to standard short radius elbows, making it the preferred choice in refrigerant piping and high-velocity air or fluid systems. Both ends accept 1/4 inch copper connections. This fitting is intended for installation by licensed HVAC technicians, refrigeration mechanics, and plumbers working on copper line assemblies where a smooth directional change is required.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC refrigerant lines, copper plumbing systems, and other applications requiring a 90-degree directional change in 1/4 inch copper tubing. The long radius design is commonly specified where minimizing pressure drop is a priority. It is appropriate for installations governed by industry dimensional and material composition standards for copper fittings.

Key Features

• Long radius 90-degree sweep reduces flow restriction at direction changes
• 1/4 inch copper x 1/4 inch copper end connections
• Full copper construction for compatibility with refrigerant and potable water systems
• Manufactured to industry standards for dimensional accuracy and material composition
• Suitable for sweat or braze joining methods standard in copper pipe work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for 1/4 inch copper line systems in residential and commercial HVAC and plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or plumber familiar with copper brazing or soldering procedures. Recover and isolate any refrigerant charge before opening a refrigerant circuit, in compliance with applicable EPA Section 608 requirements. Ensure all tubing ends are clean, deburred, and properly fluxed before joining. Do not apply excessive heat to the fitting body during brazing, as this can affect material integrity.
