Nibco Inc W01370D 45 Degree Solder Elbow 1-1/4 Inch Cxc

Product Description

The NIBCO INC W01370D is a 1-1/4 inch copper-by-copper (CxC) 45-degree solder elbow designed for use in copper tubing systems where the pipeline direction must change at a 45-degree angle. The fitting features solder cups on both ends, allowing installation with standard soldering tools and flux. It meets lead-free requirements, making it suitable for potable water applications where lead-free compliance is mandated by code. Plumbers and pipefitters working on both new construction and retrofit projects will find this a straightforward, code-compliant solution for direction changes in copper piping runs.

This elbow is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, including domestic water supply lines, hydronic heating distribution piping, and similar copper tubing applications. The 45-degree offset is commonly specified when a gradual directional change is preferred over a sharper 90-degree turn, reducing flow turbulence and easing routing around structural elements. It is sold in a package quantity of 10 units, making it practical for contractors stocking material for multiple rough-in installations.

Key Features

• 45-degree directional change for copper pipeline routing
• Solder cup ends (CxC) for standard sweat soldering installation
• Lead-free construction for compliance with potable water regulations
• 1-1/4 inch nominal size fits standard copper tubing of the same diameter
• Sold in a package of 10 units for job-site efficiency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sweat fitting compatible with 1-1/4 inch copper tubing in standard CxC solder-joint applications per ASME B16.22 wrought copper fitting practices.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers using standard sweat soldering techniques. Shut off water supply and fully drain the line before cutting and preparing pipe ends. Clean pipe ends and fitting cups with emery cloth and apply flux before soldering to ensure a leak-free joint. All work on potable water systems must comply with applicable local plumbing codes, including lead-free requirements per the Safe Drinking Water Act amendments.
