Nibco Inc 9055455PCU 1/2 Inch Pxp 90 Degree Elbow

Product Description

The NIBCO INC 9055455PCU is a 1/2 inch press by press 90 degree elbow fitting designed to change copper pipeline direction by 90 degrees without soldering or open flame. It connects using a press-fit joining method on both ends, making it a common choice for plumbers working in tight spaces or in areas where torch work is restricted. The fitting is lead-free, meeting current potable water requirements. Sold in packages of 10, it suits both new construction and retrofit plumbing projects where speed and code compliance are priorities.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where copper pipe direction changes are required. Press fittings are frequently specified in hospitals, schools, and occupied buildings where open-flame soldering is prohibited or impractical. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this type of fitting using a calibrated press tool with the appropriate jaw size for 1/2 inch copper.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a compatible press tool with a 1/2 inch jaw or head specific to the press fitting system. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into the line.
