5/8 inch ID Copper Refrig 90 Degree Long Radius Street Elbow Copper x Fitting

5/8” x 3/4” Copper 90° Long Radius Street Elbow – For Refrigeration and HVAC Piping Systems

The 5/8” x 3/4” Copper Long Radius Street Elbow is a sweat fitting used in refrigeration, HVAC, and hydronic piping systems where directional changes and tight clearances are required. With a 90-degree long radius bend and a street-end (male) connection, this fitting simplifies layout configurations and reduces the need for additional couplings in compact mechanical assemblies.

Manufactured from wrought copper, this fitting is compatible with standard copper tubing and conforms to dimensional and performance requirements for HVAC and refrigeration applications. Its long sweep reduces pressure loss and turbulence, supporting smooth refrigerant or fluid flow under continuous service conditions.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Wrought Copper
• Size: 5/8” OD x 3/4” OD
• Bend Angle: 90 degrees (Long Radius)
• Connection Type: Male (Street) x Female (Socket), Sweat
• Conformance: ASME B16.22, ASTM B75/B88

Product Features

• ✅ Street-End Configuration – Allows direct insertion into copper fittings, minimizing fitting count and saving space.
• ✅ Long Radius Sweep – Reduces flow restriction and facilitates smoother fluid or refrigerant transitions.
• ✅ Corrosion-Resistant – Copper resists internal scaling and external corrosion in both HVAC and plumbing environments.
• ✅ Lead-Free Composition – Meets low-lead requirements for potable water or food-grade refrigeration systems.

Installation Guidelines

This fitting is designed for sweat (solder) installation. Pipe and fitting ends must be cleaned and fluxed before soldering. Apply heat evenly and use lead-free solder in compliance with local and national plumbing and mechanical codes. For refrigeration applications, use nitrogen purge during soldering to avoid internal oxidation.

Common Applications

Frequently used in refrigeration circuits, air conditioning systems, and hydronic loop piping where controlled bends and minimal flow loss are necessary. Appropriate for both commercial and residential systems, including coil connections, compressor loops, and mechanical equipment transitions.

Regulatory Compliance

This copper fitting complies with the Safe Drinking Water Act and applicable state codes mandating lead-free components in systems conveying potable water or food-contact media. It is also suitable for HVAC and mechanical system design per ASHRAE and IPC guidelines.

The 5/8” x 3/4” Copper 90° Long Radius Street Elbow delivers a precise fit, long-term corrosion resistance, and optimal fluid dynamics for demanding installations. Its combination of reduced joint count and durable construction makes it a reliable component in professional-grade piping assemblies.
