Midland Industries 00665-08 Compression Elbow 1/2 in Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 00665-08 is a chrome-plated brass compression elbow designed for 1/2-inch compression-to-1/2-inch compression connections. This fitting creates a 90-degree directional change in a compression tubing run without soldering or special tooling. The chrome plating gives it a finished appearance suitable for exposed installations, while the underlying brass construction provides reliable corrosion resistance. Rated for service from -65 to 250 degrees F, it handles the temperature range common in residential and light commercial plumbing supply lines. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this type of fitting in water supply, fixture connection, and similar low-pressure tubing systems.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a compression-style direction change is required. It is compatible with aluminum, copper, or plastic tubing at 1/2-inch outside diameter. Typical use scenarios include under-sink supply line routing, ice maker lines, and similar fixture connections where a solderless fitting is preferred. The chrome-plated finish makes it an appropriate choice when the fitting will remain visible after installation, such as in exposed supply riser configurations.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or qualified tradespersons working on water supply tubing systems. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and deburred before seating the compression sleeve and nut. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements for compression fitting use in potable water systems.
