Viega 44240 Copper Pex Crimp 90 Stub-out Elbow 3/4 in

Product Description

The VIEGA 44240 is a copper 90-degree stub-out elbow designed for PureFlow PEX crimp installations in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. It features a 3/4-inch PEX insert connection on one end and a 3/4-inch copper fitting (FTG) connection on the other, with an overall stub-out length of 8 inches and a 3-1/2-inch offset dimension. The closed-end stub configuration supports direct valve or fixture connection at rough-in, making it a standard component in new construction and remodel plumbing rough-in work. Manufactured in the USA from copper, this fitting is installed by licensed plumbers using standard PEX crimp tooling and copper sweat methods.

The VIEGA 44240 is suited for potable water distribution systems where PEX tubing transitions to copper stub-out at walls or floors. Typical applications include lavatory, kitchen, and utility sink fixture connections, as well as shower and tub valve rough-ins. The 3-1/2-inch by 8-inch form factor is sized for standard residential stud-wall installations. This fitting integrates into PureFlow crimp systems following ASTM F1807 crimp ring standards and is compatible with standard copper sweat fittings on the FTG end.
