Product Description
The MUELLER STREAMLINE press-pf02822 is a 1/2 inch copper press street 90 elbow with a PxFTG (press by fitting) end configuration. It is designed for use in press-fit copper piping systems, allowing a directional change of 90 degrees without soldering. The street configuration means one end is a male press connection and the other is a female fitting-size socket, enabling direct inline connections and reducing the need for additional couplings. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this fitting in potable water supply and hydronic heating systems where press technology is approved.
This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where copper press systems are specified. It is commonly installed in tight spaces or retrofit situations where open flame soldering is restricted or impractical. The PxFTG end configuration makes it particularly useful when transitioning between run pipe and an existing fitting outlet. It is compatible with standard press tooling and jaws approved for copper press fittings at the 1/2 inch size.
Key Features
- Street 90-degree elbow configuration allows direction change without an additional coupling
- PxFTG end connections support direct press-to-fitting-socket assembly
- No-flame installation reduces fire risk and eliminates flux and solder from the joint process
- Copper construction provides corrosion resistance in potable water and hydronic applications
- 1/2 inch size covers the most common residential supply line dimension
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style copper press fitting compatible with standard 1/2 inch press-fit copper piping systems using approved press tooling for copper press connections.
Installation Notes
Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber using press tooling and jaws rated for copper press fittings at the applicable size. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line and ensure the pipe and fitting ends are clean, deburred, and fully inserted to the depth mark before pressing. Verify the completed joint with a visual inspection ring indicator where required by the tool manufacturer. Local plumbing codes and the IPC govern approved applications for press-fit copper fittings.
