SANHA elbow 90° with lugs 15x1/2, model 4472, copper alloy

SANHA elbow 90° with lugs 15x1/2, model 4472, copper alloy is a right-angle pipe fitting designed to change flow direction in plumbing and heating installations. Made from a copper alloy, the elbow combines mechanical strength with corrosion resistance appropriate for domestic hot and cold water systems and central heating circuits. The integrated mounting lugs (fixing ears) allow secure attachment to walls or supports, making the fitting suitable for installations where a compact, fixed connection is required between 15 mm copper tube and 1/2" threaded components.

Advantages

The copper alloy construction offers durability and good thermal conductivity while resisting common forms of corrosion in potable water and heating applications. The 90° geometry provides a compact directional change without the need for additional adapters. Built-in lugs simplify mounting and reduce the requirement for separate brackets, improving installation neatness and stability. The fitting is compatible with standard 15 mm copper tube and 1/2" threaded connections, ensuring straightforward integration into existing systems.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Changing direction of 15 mm copper pipe runs in domestic water supply
• Connections between copper tube and 1/2" threaded valves or appliances
• Heating circuit installations where fixed mounting is needed
• Repair and retrofit work in confined spaces requiring a compact elbow

Key specifications

• Angle: 90° elbow
• Material: copper alloy
• Tube connection size: 15 mm
• Threaded connection size: 1/2"
• Integrated mounting lugs for secure fixing
• Usage: potable water and heating systems compatibility

How to use

Prepare the 15 mm copper pipe by cutting squarely and deburring the inner and outer edges. Fit the tube end into the elbow connection following the chosen joining method appropriate for SANHA copper alloy fittings (e.g., soldering, press or push-fit depending on the specific variant and installer practice). Attach the 1/2" threaded component to the threaded end using suitable sealing method for the thread type. Use the mounting lugs to secure the elbow to a stable substrate with appropriate fasteners, ensuring alignment and strain-free connections before system pressurization.

Usage recommendations

Confirm the joining method required for the specific SANHA fitting variant and follow applicable plumbing and heating codes. When soldering or brazing, protect threaded areas and nearby seals from heat. Check compatibility of fluids, pressures and temperatures with copper alloy materials and perform a pressure test after installation to verify leak-free connections.
