Manufactured from bronze, this fitting connects a press-style pipe end to a female NPT threaded outlet while providing a mounting ear for securing the fitting to a structural surface. The drop-ear configuration is commonly used where a supply stub-out needs to be anchored at a wall, floor, or framing member. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of residential and light commercial water distribution work where tool-based press connections are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where 1\/2-inch copper press systems terminate at a threaded connection point. Typical installations include shower valves, faucet supply stubs, and other wall-mounted fixture outlets where the ear allows the fitting to be screwed to framing before the fixture is installed. The press end accepts standard press-fit tooling, and the FNPT outlet accepts standard threaded male adapters or valve bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree drop-ear geometry with mounting ear for attachment to framing or blocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress x FNPT end style allows connection from a press-fit copper system to a threaded outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch nominal size suits common residential water supply applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBronze construction provides corrosion resistance in potable water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard press-fit jaw tooling used on copper press fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style press-fit drop-ear elbow for use in 1\/2-inch nominal copper press piping systems with female NPT threaded outlets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements.
