Mueller Industries 15806 Copper 45 Street Elbow 3/4 in Ftg X C

Product Description

The MUELLER INDUSTRIES 15806 is a wrot copper 45-degree street elbow designed for use in pressurized copper piping systems. It connects in a FTG x C (fitting-to-cup) end configuration, allowing it to slip directly into another fitting socket without requiring a separate coupling. The 3/4 inch fitting size and 7/8 inch outside diameter make it a standard choice for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic systems. Wrot copper construction provides reliable corrosion resistance and meets the pressure and temperature demands typical of potable water and HVAC piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This street elbow is suited for 45-degree directional changes in 3/4 inch copper tube runs. It is commonly used in residential plumbing rough-in, water distribution, and hydronic heating systems where compact, soldered connections are required. The FTG x C end configuration allows direct insertion into a standard copper cup-end fitting, reducing the number of components needed at a directional change. It is sold in a package quantity of two.

Key Features

• Wrot copper construction for strength and corrosion resistance in potable water and HVAC service
• 45-degree street configuration eliminates the need for an extra coupling at directional changes
• FTG x C end connection for direct insertion into standard copper socket fittings
• 3/4 inch fitting size with 7/8 inch outside diameter for compatibility with standard copper tube
• Package quantity of 2 per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 3/4 inch wrot copper piping systems using sweat-solder connections in residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter using standard sweat-soldering tools and lead-free solder per applicable plumbing codes including IPC and local authority requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water supply and allow all pipe sections to cool completely before beginning work. Clean and flux all mating surfaces thoroughly before soldering to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not over-heat the fitting during soldering, as excessive heat can damage the copper or cause poor solder flow.
