Elkhart Products B070150 Copper Male Adapter Elbow 3/4 in

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS B070150 is a no-lead copper male adapter elbow designed for use in potable water and general plumbing systems. This fitting connects copper tubing to male-threaded pipe connections at a 90-degree angle, allowing directional changes in a run while maintaining a secure, leak-resistant joint. The no-lead construction meets federal safe drinking water standards, making it suitable for installations in residential and light commercial potable water systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters select this fitting for its reliable sweat-solder socket on one end and male NPT threads on the other.

This adapter elbow is used in copper water supply piping where a threaded male connection is required at a directional change. Typical applications include fixture supply lines, water heater connections, and branch supply runs where copper tubing transitions to a threaded valve, fitting, or appliance connection. It is sized at 3/4 inch, which is common in main supply and hot water distribution lines.

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 fully depressurize and drain the line before cutting or disassembling any existing piping. The sweat socket end requires standard copper soldering tools including flux, lead-free solder, and a torch rated for plumbing applications. Inspect threads for damage before making up the threaded connection and use an appropriate thread sealant approved for potable water service.
