Copper 45° Elbow Conex 42 mm model 5041 042000000 for plumbing connections

Conex 45° copper elbow, 42 mm diameter, model 5041 provides a compact directional change for copper plumbing and heating pipework. Manufactured for use in potable water, heating circuits and general plumbing distribution, this 45-degree bend helps route copper tubing where a gentle change of direction is required. It is designed for connections using compatible joining methods such as soldering or approved press-fit systems and is suitable for new installations, repairs and retrofit work.

Advantages

The Conex 45° elbow offers reliable hydraulic performance with minimal flow restriction due to its smooth internal curvature. Copper material ensures good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance in typical potable water and heating environments. Its 42 mm diameter matches standard copper tube sizes, enabling straightforward integration with existing copper systems when appropriate joining techniques are used.

Suitable for

• Residential and commercial cold and hot water distribution
• Heating and radiator circuits
• Plumbing repairs and retrofit projects
• Routing copper tubing around obstacles with a shallow change of direction

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Angle: 45 degrees
• Nominal tube diameter: 42 mm
• Connection methods: suitable for soldering and compatible press-fit systems (where applicable)
• Typical applications: potable water systems, heating circuits, plumbing distribution

How to use

Select the 42 mm copper tubing and prepare tube ends by cleaning and deburring to ensure proper fit. Use the approved joining method for your system: for soldered joints, apply appropriate flux and solder following established plumbing standards; for compatible press-fit systems, ensure fittings and tools are certified for the material and size. After installation, pressure-test the system according to local regulations and inspect joints for leaks.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility with the chosen joining method and local plumbing codes before installation. Protect the elbow from mechanical damage during installation and ensure adequate support of the pipe run to prevent stress at the joint. For applications involving potable water, follow relevant potable water installation guidelines and use materials approved for drinking water.
