It features a solder cup on the copper end and female NPT threads on the outlet end, allowing a technician to change pipeline direction 90 degrees while transitioning from a soldered copper connection to a threaded connection in a single fitting. Mounting ears are integrated into the body, enabling the fitting to be fastened directly to a wall stud or framing member for a secure, stable installation. The fitting is lead-free, meeting applicable potable-water standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drop elbow is used wherever a copper supply line must make a 90-degree turn and terminate at a threaded stub-out or fixture connection. Common applications include rough-in plumbing for faucets, dishwashers, ice makers, and other fixtures that require a threaded male connection at the point of use. The mounting ear design is especially useful in new construction and remodel work where the stub-out must be positionally fixed before drywall is applied. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolder cup inlet accepts 3\/4 inch copper tubing for standard sweat connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFemale NPT threaded outlet adapts from copper to threaded piping in one fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated mounting ears allow the fitting to be secured to framing for a rigid stub-out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free construction suitable for potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree turn changes pipeline direction without additional fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3\/4 inch copper water supply systems requiring a transition to female NPT threaded connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the IPC and applicable local codes.
