Nibco Inc W01570T 1 Inch Ftgxc 90 Degree Copper Elbow

Product Description

The NIBCO INC W01570T is a 1-inch FTGxC 90-degree copper elbow fitting designed for redirecting pipeline flow at a right angle. It features a solder cup on one end and a male solder (fitting) end on the other, connected by a close rough radius. The fitting is lead-free, meeting health and safety requirements for potable water systems. Licensed plumbers install this fitting using standard soldering techniques as part of copper supply or distribution piping assemblies. It is sold in packages of 5 units and weighs 1.28 pounds per package.

This elbow is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a 90-degree direction change is required in copper pipe runs. The FTGxC (fitting-to-copper) end configuration allows it to connect directly to the outside diameter of copper tubing on the cup end and slip into a fitting socket on the male end, making it suitable for tight transitions and close-quarter installations in water supply, distribution, and hydronic heating lines.
