Nibco Inc W01340T 45 Degree Cxc Solder Elbow 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The NIBCO INC W01340T is a 1/2-inch copper-to-copper (CxC) 45-degree solder elbow fitting designed to redirect copper pipe runs at a 45-degree angle in plumbing and hydronic systems. The fitting features solder cups on both ends, allowing it to be joined to copper tubing using standard lead-free solder and flux. Constructed to lead-free specifications, the W01340T is suitable for potable water installations where lead-free compliance is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial applications during new construction and retrofit work.

This elbow is used wherever a 45-degree directional change is needed in a copper pipe run. Typical applications include domestic hot and cold water distribution, hydronic heating loops, and general plumbing rough-in work. The CxC end configuration means both sockets accept copper tubing of the same nominal size, making it straightforward to integrate into standard copper piping systems. Sold in a package quantity of 25, it is well suited for contractors stocking fittings for multi-fixture or multi-unit projects.
