The fitting measures 3\/4 inch on the copper sweat (C) inlet and reduces to a 1\/2-inch female thread (F) outlet, allowing a direct connection to threaded pipe or a shower arm stub-out. Cast from copper alloy per ASTM B584, it provides the corrosion resistance and pressure rating required for potable water and hydronic supply lines. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting where a pipe must change direction by 90 degrees and terminate at a wall-mounted threaded connection point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drop ear elbow is commonly used in residential plumbing rough-in work, particularly for shower and tub valve installations, wall-mount faucet rough-ins, and similar applications where the fitting is secured to blocking or a structural member before the wall surface is finished. The ear flanges allow the fitting to be screwed to wood blocking or a backing plate, preventing movement and stress on the solder joint when threaded accessories are tightened or removed later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast copper alloy construction meets ASTM B584 for use in potable water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree drop ear profile with mounting flanges for attachment to wall blocking or structural backing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch sweat (C) inlet connects to standard copper tubing with a solder joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch female thread (F) outlet accepts NPT threaded pipe or fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressure-rated fitting suitable for residential supply line applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style pressure fitting compatible with standard 3\/4-inch copper tubing on the sweat end and 1\/2-inch NPT threaded connections on the outlet end, per ASTM B584 and ISO fitting standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before soldering. The ear flanges must be fastened to solid backing before threading any accessories into the female outlet to prevent joint stress and leaks. Do not over-torque threaded connections into the female outlet; use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on the male threads being installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 Degree Drop Ear Elbow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch x 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: C x F (Sweat x Female Thread)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pressure Fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM B584, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.24 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: B067050\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544496177458,"sku":"B067050","price":36.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cb53fcc3350be2421d8cefa32fcf133c_2919fe92-d54c-4566-ba03-47335589a4a8.jpg?v=1785928096","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-b067050-cast-copper-90-drop-ear-elbow-3-4x1-2-c-x-f","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
