Viega 77043 45 Degree Press Pipe Elbow 2 Inch

Product Description

The VIEGA 77043 is a 45-degree press-style pipe elbow designed for 2-inch nominal copper piping systems. It connects using a press end style, eliminating the need for open flame or soldering during installation. The fitting is manufactured from copper, making it suitable for potable water, hydronic heating, and mechanical piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial or residential systems use this fitting where a direction change of 45 degrees is required and press tooling is available on site.

This elbow is used in residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic systems where copper press fittings are the specified connection method. The press end style allows for fast, flame-free installation in occupied spaces, tight chases, or anywhere open-flame work is restricted. It fits standard 2-inch copper tubing and is appropriate for new construction and retrofit work alike.

Key Features

• 45-degree angle for precise directional changes in copper piping runs
• Press end style connection — no soldering or open flame required
• 2-inch nominal size fits standard copper tubing
• Copper construction compatible with potable water and hydronic systems
• Speeds up installation time compared to solder-joint fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting for use with standard 2-inch nominal copper tubing in press-tool-based plumbing and hydronic piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a calibrated press tool with the correct 2-inch jaw set for copper press fittings. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before working on any existing piping. This fitting must be pressed in accordance with the fitting manufacturer guidelines and applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Verify the pipe end is clean, deburred, and fully inserted to the depth mark before pressing.
