Elkhart Products 9046200CB 45 Degree Street Elbow 1/2 in Copper

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS 9046200CB is a 45-degree copper street elbow designed for soldered sweat connections in residential and commercial plumbing systems. Part of the KLEENFIT product line, this fitting ships cleaned and bagged to meet cleanliness requirements for potable water and mechanical systems, reducing prep time during installation. The FTG x C (fitting-to-copper tube) end configuration allows the fitting end to insert directly into another fitting socket, making it well suited for tight-clearance runs and offsets. Weighing just 0.035 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight component built for frequent use in high-volume plumbing work.

This 45-degree street elbow is used to change flow direction in copper pipe runs where a standard 45-degree offset is needed and space is limited. The FTG x C connection eliminates the need for an additional coupling at one end, saving material and reducing the number of solder joints in the assembly. It is appropriate for water supply lines, hydronic heating distribution, and similar applications handled by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working in residential or light commercial construction and service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and fully depressurize and drain the line before cutting or soldering. Use appropriate flux, lead-free solder, and a calibrated torch; do not overheat the fitting, as excess heat can compromise the joint. Allow all joints to cool completely before restoring water pressure and inspecting for leaks.
