Copper 90° double-socket elbow Conex B Press 15 mm P500201500000

The Copper 90° double-socket elbow Conex B Press 15 mm is a right-angle copper fitting engineered for press-fit plumbing and heating installations. It provides two socket ends designed to accept 15 mm copper tubing and enables a compact 90° change of direction in pipe runs. The B Press connection method ensures a permanent mechanical and leak-tight joint when installed with compatible press tools and jaws. This fitting is suitable for use in potable water systems, central heating circuits and general copper pipework where a robust, space-saving elbow is required.

Advantages

This copper elbow combines the corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity of copper with the speed and reliability of press-fit joining. The design provides a compact footprint for tight installations while maintaining consistent internal bore for efficient flow. Press connections reduce installation time compared with traditional soldered joints and eliminate the need for open flames, making it suitable for modern site conditions and enclosed spaces.

Suitable for

• Potable water distribution and domestic cold/hot water lines
• Central heating and radiator circuits
• General copper pipework requiring a 90° change of direction
• Situations where press-fit installation is preferred for speed and safety

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure pipe ends are clean, free of burrs and fully inserted into each socket until they reach the stop. Use a compatible press tool and correctly sized jaws for 15 mm press fittings, and perform the press operation according to the tool and fitting manufacturer's instructions. Verify each joint visually and, where applicable, test the system for leaks at working pressure before commissioning.

Usage recommendations

Store fittings in a dry, dust-free environment and protect open ends from contamination prior to assembly. Select press tools and accessories recommended by the fitting manufacturer and follow local plumbing regulations and codes for potable water and heating installations.
