Ndl Industries W3055 45 Degree Copper Elbow 1-5/8 in Cxc

Product Description

The NDL INDUSTRIES W3055 is a 45-degree copper elbow designed for directional changes in copper tubing runs. Sized at 1-5/8 inches with a copper-to-copper (C x C) connection type, it is sweat-soldered into place using standard torch and flux methods. This fitting is used in refrigeration, HVAC, and plumbing systems where a 45-degree change in direction is required. It ships in a box quantity of 10, making it practical for job-site or service-van stocking. Licensed refrigeration techs, HVAC mechanics, and plumbers are the primary installers of this fitting type.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial applications where copper tubing at 1-5/8 inches diameter must be routed around obstructions or transitioned at a 45-degree angle. The C x C connection style requires that both mating tube ends be properly cleaned, fluxed, and soldered to achieve a leak-free joint. It is commonly found in refrigerant line sets, chilled water piping, and larger-diameter domestic plumbing runs.

Key Features

• 45-degree bend angle for moderate directional changes in copper tubing systems
• 1-5/8 inch sizing fits standard copper tubing of the same nominal diameter
• C x C connection type — both ends accept sweat-solder joints
• Sold in box quantities of 10 for efficient stocking and job-site use
• Copper construction provides corrosion resistance and compatibility with standard soldering procedures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for copper tubing systems requiring a 1-5/8 inch, 45-degree C x C elbow connection.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a licensed plumber or certified HVAC-R technician in most jurisdictions. Before soldering, ensure the system is fully depressurized and, where applicable, that refrigerant has been properly recovered per EPA Section 608 requirements. Clean and deburr both tube ends, apply an appropriate flux, and heat evenly before introducing solder. Follow applicable local plumbing codes or the IFGC for gas-adjacent piping assemblies.
