Nibco Inc W01480D 3/4x1/2 Cxc 90 Degree Copper Elbow

Product Description

The NIBCO INC W01480D is a 3/4 x 1/2 inch copper-to-copper (CxC) 90-degree elbow fitting designed for sweat-solder plumbing installations. Conforming to the C607 standard, it features solder cups and a close rough radius that allows a compact direction change in tight spaces. The fitting is lead-free, meeting current potable water installation requirements. It is used by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial copper supply lines where a 90-degree turn is needed between a 3/4 inch and 1/2 inch line.

This reducing elbow fits typical residential and commercial plumbing systems where copper tubing transitions from 3/4 inch main supply lines down to 1/2 inch branch lines. The close rough radius design makes it suitable for confined spaces such as wall cavities, mechanical rooms, and under-sink rough-ins. It is sold in a package of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking for multiple fixtures or whole-house rough-in work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and fully drain the line before cutting or fitting. Clean and flux all mating surfaces before applying heat; use appropriate lead-free solder for potable water applications. Do not apply excessive heat, which can damage the fitting or compromise the solder joint.
