IBP MIEDZ LUK 90 2-K 18 /300/ — IBP copper elbow 90° two-piece 18 mm, length 300 mm

Copper elbow IBP MIEDZ LUK 90 2-K 18 /300/ is a 90° plumbing fitting designed to join 18 mm water pipes with a compact right-angle change of direction. The fitting features a two-piece construction and a 300 mm overall length that allows straightforward assembly and, when necessary, partial replacement of the elbow without disassembling the entire pipeline. Constructed from copper, the elbow provides corrosion resistance and good thermal conductivity, making it suitable for potable water, heating and sanitary installations where a reliable metal connection is required.

Advantages

The two-piece design simplifies installation in confined spaces and enables easier maintenance by allowing replacement of one section without removing adjacent pipework. Copper construction offers durability against corrosion and stable performance under typical domestic and commercial temperature ranges. The compact 90° geometry and standardized 18 mm bore ensure compatibility with common copper piping systems and support leak-resistant joints when properly installed.

Suitable for

• Domestic and commercial potable water distribution
• Heating circuits in residential and light-commercial systems
• Sanitary and bathroom plumbing installations
• Compact directional changes in tight piping layouts

Key specifications

• Angle: 90° elbow
• Design: two-piece construction
• Connection size: 18 mm nominal pipe diameter
• Overall length: 300 mm
• Material: copper

How to use

Prepare matching 18 mm copper pipes by cutting squarely and removing burrs. Clean and flux pipe ends and fitting surfaces appropriate to the chosen joining method (soldering or brazing) following material and safety guidelines. Assemble the two-piece elbow with the pipe ends, align the bend to the required orientation and apply heat and filler metal or follow the manufacturer’s recommended joining procedure until a continuous, fully sealed joint is formed. Allow joints to cool and inspect for continuity and leaks before placing the system into service.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment when soldering or brazing. Verify compatibility with potable water standards and local plumbing codes before installation. For long-term leak-free performance, ensure proper pipe preparation, correct use of flux and filler materials, and pressure-test the system after installation.
