Nibco PRES45L112 Copper Press 45 Degree Elbow 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The NIBCO PRES45L112 is a copper press 45-degree elbow fitting designed for press-connect copper piping systems. It accepts 1-1/2 inch press connections on both ends, eliminating the need for open flame soldering during installation. The fitting is used to change pipe direction by 45 degrees in plumbing, hydronic heating, and mechanical piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications where flame-free joining is preferred or required by code.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic systems where copper press fittings are specified. The press-connect design is commonly used in tight spaces, wet environments, or occupancy conditions where torch work is restricted. It is compatible with standard copper press tooling and press-fit sealing elements.

Key Features

• 45-degree change-of-direction fitting for copper press piping systems
• 1-1/2 inch press x press end connections on both ends
• Flame-free installation eliminates torch and solder requirements
• Copper construction for corrosion resistance in plumbing and hydronic applications
• Compatible with standard press-connect tooling and jaw sets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting for 1-1/2 inch copper press piping systems in plumbing and hydronic heating applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a calibrated press tool with the correct jaw or ring set for 1-1/2 inch copper press fittings. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing piping. Verify that the pipe end is clean, deburred, and fully inserted to the fitting stop before pressing. This type of work is typically performed by a licensed plumber and must comply with applicable local plumbing codes.
