SANHA Copper PRESS 90° Elbow 1/2" (model 132002A12)

SANHA Copper PRESS 90° Elbow 1/2" is a press-fit copper fitting designed to connect two copper pipes at a right angle without soldering. Manufactured from copper for corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity, the fitting features a compact form factor suitable for installations where space is limited. It is intended for use with compatible press tools and press rings to create permanent, leak-resistant joints in heating, potable water and sanitary systems.

Advantages

The press-fit design eliminates the need for flame or soldering, reducing on-site risk and installation time. Copper construction provides long-term durability and good thermal performance. Its compact 90° shape allows routing in tight spaces while maintaining the strength of a mechanical press connection. When installed with appropriate press tooling and rings, the fitting produces consistent, reproducible joints suitable for professional plumbing and heating applications.

Suitable for

• Domestic and commercial heating systems
• Potable water supply and distribution
• Sanitary installations and bathroom plumbing
• Retrofit and new-build projects in confined spaces

Key specifications

• Material: Copper
• Connection type: Press-fit
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Nominal connection size: 1/2"
• Compatibility: For use with compatible press tools and press rings for copper fittings
• Application temperature: Suitable for typical heating and potable water temperature ranges (follow system manufacturer limits)

How to use

Prepare the copper pipes by cutting squarely and deburring the inner and outer edges. Slide the correct press ring onto the pipe, insert the pipe fully into the elbow stop, and verify alignment. Position the press tool jaw over the press ring and perform the press cycle according to the press tool manufacturer’s instructions. After pressing, inspect the joint visually and, where required, perform a pressure test in line with local regulations and system requirements.

Usage recommendations

Use only press rings and jaws specified by the press-system manufacturer for copper fittings. Ensure press tools are calibrated and maintained, and always observe applicable norms and installation standards for potable water and heating systems. For installations with special media or higher temperatures, consult system specifications before use.
