Elkhart Products ST45ELL-3 Copper Street 45 Elbow 3 in

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS ST45ELL-3 is a 3-inch WROT copper street 45-degree elbow fitting designed for solder-joint copper piping systems. It connects using a FTG x C (fitting-to-copper) configuration, allowing one end to slip over a copper tube while the other end accepts a standard copper tube end. This fitting is used to change flow direction by 45 degrees in pressurized plumbing lines. Weighing 1.470 pounds and dimensioned at 4.65 inches by 5.67 inches by 3.30 inches, it is sized for 3-inch copper pipe and is installed by licensed plumbers on commercial and residential systems alike.

This street elbow is suited for domestic water supply, hydronic heating, and light commercial plumbing applications where a 45-degree direction change is required in a 3-inch copper line. The WROT construction indicates wrought copper, which provides consistent wall thickness and reliable solder joints. It is commonly installed in mechanical rooms, boiler rooms, and main distribution lines where larger-diameter copper fittings are specified.

Key Features

• WROT copper construction for consistent wall thickness and strong solder joints
• 3-inch FTG x C connection for direct street-style installation without an additional coupling
• 45-degree elbow angle for moderate direction changes in copper piping runs
• Solder-type joint compatible with standard plumbing torch and flux procedures
• Rated for pressurized domestic water and hydronic system use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch copper solder-joint piping systems using standard FTG x C connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with IPC or locally adopted plumbing codes. Shut off and drain the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Clean and flux both mating surfaces thoroughly before applying heat to ensure a leak-free solder joint. Avoid overheating the fitting, as excessive heat can damage the copper and compromise joint integrity.
