Elkhart Products STELL-3 Copper Street 90 Elbow 3 in

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS STELL-3 is a 3-inch wrot copper street 90-degree elbow designed for close-rough solder applications in residential and commercial plumbing systems. Built from wrot copper with a FTG x C (fitting-to-cup) connection, this elbow delivers a reliable 90-degree directional change in copper tube runs. The FTG end accepts standard copper tubing directly, eliminating the need for an additional coupling at the turn. At 1.96 pounds, it is a substantial fitting suited for 3-inch trunk and branch lines where a tight, pressure-rated solder joint is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on potable water, hydronic heating, or mechanical piping systems will find this fitting consistent with wrot copper quality standards.

This elbow is used in 3-inch copper piping systems where a 90-degree direction change is needed and space is at a premium. Typical applications include main water service entries, large-diameter branch connections, boiler and chiller piping, and commercial mechanical rooms. The street configuration allows the fitting to be inserted directly into another fitting socket, reducing the overall installed length of the assembly and simplifying layout in tight chases or wall cavities.

Key Features

• Wrot copper construction for consistent grain structure and strong solder joints
• FTG x C connection accepts copper tube on the cup end and seats into a fitting socket on the street end
• 90-degree street elbow profile minimizes overall assembly length compared to standard elbows
• 3-inch size suits main service lines, large branch runs, and commercial mechanical piping
• Solder-type joint compatible with standard lead-free solder and flux per applicable plumbing codes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wrot copper fitting for use with standard 3-inch copper tubing in solder-joint plumbing systems built to ASTM and applicable local plumbing code requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or applicable local codes. Shut off and drain the water supply completely before cutting into any existing line. Clean all mating surfaces with emery cloth and apply lead-free flux before soldering; overheat can damage the fitting or produce a void in the joint. Allow the joint to cool fully before restoring system pressure.
