1/2 inch Copper 90 Degree Street Press Elbow Fitting x Copper

1/2" Copper 90° Street Press Elbow – Compact Transition Fitting for Press Systems

The 1/2" Copper 90° Street Press Elbow is engineered for directional transitions within press-connect copper systems. Featuring a press socket on one end and a male copper end on the other, it eliminates the need for an additional coupling when joining directly to another fitting. This space-saving design is ideal for compact installations and directional changes in both new and retrofit plumbing applications.

Manufactured from lead-free wrought copper, the fitting is certified for use in potable water systems and is compatible with all standard press tools and jaw profiles. The street configuration simplifies layout transitions and reduces total fitting count in tight assemblies.

Key Performance Features

• ✅ Street Elbow Configuration – Press end x street end design allows direct connection into another fitting without a coupling.
• ✅ Lead-Free Copper Construction – Compliant with NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 standards for potable water use.
• ✅ Compact 90° Radius – Provides clean directional changes while minimizing system footprint.
• ✅ Press-Fit Connection – Enables flame-free, time-saving installation with compatible press tools.
• ✅ Corrosion Resistant – Durable copper body supports long-term performance in both open and concealed piping systems.

Installation Guidelines

Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and removing burrs. Insert the male street end into the mating fitting and the press end onto the pipe until proper depth is achieved. Use approved press tools with compatible jaw sets to complete the joint. No soldering, adhesives, or flame required. Conduct system testing as per code.

Applications

Used in residential and light commercial potable water systems, fixture drops, risers, and branch transitions where space constraints require compact directional fittings. Ideal for installations behind walls, in mechanical closets, and under sinks.

Code Compliance Note

This fitting meets national lead-free plumbing regulations and is approved for use in potable water distribution under current state and federal codes. Its press connection design enhances jobsite safety by eliminating flame-based joining methods.

The 1/2" Copper 90° Street Press Elbow provides a durable, low-profile solution for system routing where layout efficiency and press-to-press compatibility are priorities. Built to meet industry standards and reduce install time, it supports secure, long-lasting plumbing assemblies.
