Matco-norca clfm0303lf 1/2 in Lead-free Brass 90 Cxm Elbow

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA clfm0303lf is a lead-free brass 90-degree elbow adapter designed for copper plumbing systems. It connects a female soldered (sweat) end to a male threaded end, making it a CxM transition fitting. Built from brass and fully lead-free compliant, this fitting is suited for potable water applications where code-required lead-free materials are mandatory. Licensed plumbers install this fitting when transitioning from copper tubing to a threaded connection at a 90-degree change of direction. Both ports are sized at 1/2 inch, and center-to-end distances measure 0.95 inches and 1.32 inches respectively.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems wherever a 90-degree directional change is needed between a copper sweat line and a male threaded connection point. Typical applications include supply line connections to fixtures, valves, and equipment stubs. The lead-free brass construction meets requirements for drinking water systems under current plumbing codes. It is packaged in quantities of 25 per inner pack and 250 per master carton, making it practical for plumbing contractors stocking job-site supplies.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/2 inch copper sweat-to-male-threaded connections in residential and commercial potable water plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the water supply and depressurize and drain the line before soldering. The female sweat end is joined to copper tubing using standard lead-free solder per applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or UPC. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threaded end before making the threaded connection, and avoid over-tightening to prevent brass thread damage.
