This 90-degree fitting is constructed from one-piece DZR brass and is rated for service up to 200 degrees F and 200 psi. The drop ear configuration provides a wall-mount anchor point, making it a practical solution for shower arm stubs, tub spout drops, and similar fixture tie-ins. Licensed plumbers and experienced tradespeople install this fitting without soldering, crimping, or compression tools. It ships individually bagged and weighs 0.242 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suitable for potable water distribution in residential and commercial applications. It connects directly to copper, PEX, and CPVC pipe without adapters or transition fittings. The drop ear design mounts to framing or blocking before drywall installation, making it well suited for new construction rough-in and remodel work where wall-outlet positioning is required. Because fittings can be buried and placed behind drywall, installers can complete rough-in with confidence in long-term joint integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect design installs without soldering, crimping, or special tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne-piece DZR brass construction resists dezincification corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 200 degrees F and 200 psi for reliable performance in demanding service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with copper, PEX, and CPVC pipe — no transition fittings required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDrop ear configuration provides integral wall-mount flange for fixture stub-out applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRemovable and reusable, reducing waste during inspection or system changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead content held to no more than 0.25% weighted average on wetted surfaces, meeting low-lead requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with 1\/2-inch copper, PEX, and CPVC pipe.

Before installing or removing the fitting, shut off the water supply and depressurize the line. Ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before insertion to the depth mark. The fitting is removable with a disconnect clip or tool; never force the collet without releasing it properly, as this can damage the internal grab ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches push-to-connect\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches push-to-connect\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees (1\/4 bend)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Drop Ear Elbow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: One-piece DZR brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Pipe Types\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper, PEX, CPVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Content\u003c\/strong\u003e: No more than 0.25% weighted average on wetted surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.242 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: UPC, IAPMO, NSF-61\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each, individually bagged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RWC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: U249LFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RWC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346263212338,"sku":"U249LFA","price":22.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310551192.jpg?v=1782075603","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rwc-u249lfa-1-2-in-push-to-connect-90-deg-drop-ear-elbow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
