Copper 45-Degree Elbow (C x C)
Designed to execute smooth, precise 45-degree directional offsets inside pressurized pipeline configurations, our Copper 45-Degree Elbow (C x C) controls fluid velocity efficiently while significantly reducing dynamic pressure drop. By utilizing a gradual eighth-bend trajectory instead of a harsh right angle, this fitting minimizes internal flow turbulence and structural friction losses across high-demand mechanical systems.
Manufactured from high-purity, seamless wrot copper to meet stringent ASME B16.22 mechanical codes, this pressure elbow offers superior wall uniformity. It is built to withstand heavy thermal cycling, high internal working pressures, and long-term erosion-corrosion.
Key System Performance Baselines:
- Application Profile: Engineered for plumbing systems, commercial hydronic heating loops, refrigeration lines, and high-pressure fluid process layouts.
- Optimized Flow Path: 45-degree angle profile reduces fluid resistance, protecting the system from velocity-induced copper tube wall thinning.
- Connection Type: Solder Cup x Solder Cup (C x C) ports, precision-machined to ensure a perfect capillary fit for standard solder or brazing alloys.
- Material Purity: Manufactured from lead-free, naturally bacteriostatic rigid copper compound certified to ASME B16.22 and NSF/ANSI Standard 61 specs for potable water.
⚠️ Installation Advisory: Always cut copper pipe completely square, ream internal edges, and apply a uniform layer of flux before assembly. Insufficient surface preparation can lead to capillary gaps, causing pinhole leaks under hydro-testing conditions.
