Sized at 3\/4 inch copper inlet by 1\/2 inch female iron pipe (FIP) outlet, this fitting allows a pipe run to change direction while simultaneously reducing line size and providing a threaded mounting ear. Cast from international-grade brass and built to lead-free standards, it suits potable water applications where code compliance on lead content is required. Plumbers use this fitting where a shower arm, tub spout, or wall-mounted supply stub-out must be anchored to framing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis elbow is suited for new construction and retrofit plumbing projects where a copper supply line transitions to a female-threaded outlet at a wall. The drop ear design allows the body to be screwed to a backing plate or stud, securing the fitting in place before drywall is installed. Typical applications include bathroom and kitchen rough-in work. The CxF connection type means the 3\/4 inch side accepts a standard copper tube soldered joint, while the 1\/2 inch side accepts a male-threaded iron pipe or brass adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets potable water compliance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration: 3\/4 inch copper sweat inlet to 1\/2 inch FIP outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree turn with integrated drop ear for mounting to wall framing or backing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCxF connection combines solder-joint copper side with female-threaded outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast brass body for durability in pressurized supply lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting compatible with 3\/4 inch copper tube and 1\/2 inch female iron pipe threaded connections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation 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 soldering. The copper sweat side requires proper flux application, clean tubing, and a propane or MAPP torch for a sound solder joint. Secure the drop ear to solid backing before closing the wall to prevent movement under supply pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: CxF (Copper Sweat x Female Iron Pipe)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 Degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Line\u003c\/strong\u003e: International Cast Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4707-3-5-R\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ELKHART PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10159242\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ELKHART PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383559586098,"sku":"10159242","price":60.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312673717.png?v=1782600514","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/elkhart-products-10159242-reducing-90-drop-ear-elbow-lead-free","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
