Copper elbow 45° SANHA 5040, 35 mm

Copper elbow 45° SANHA 5040, 35 mm is a copper plumbing fitting designed to change the direction of copper tubing by 45 degrees. It is manufactured by SANHA for use in sanitary and heating systems where a compact, angled connection is required. The fitting provides a smooth internal bore and consistent wall thickness appropriate for soldering or capillary jointing with standard soft solder or brazing techniques. Intended for domestic and commercial water distribution, central heating and compatible installations, it helps create neat pipe runs where directional adjustment is needed.

Advantages

The SANHA 45° copper elbow offers corrosion-resistant copper construction that maintains long-term flow characteristics and thermal conductivity suitable for heating circuits. Its factory-formed geometry ensures a precise 45-degree angle and consistent fit with 35 mm copper tubing, reducing the need for on-site shaping. The smooth internal surface minimizes flow resistance and the part is compatible with common joining methods used in plumbing and heating installations.

Suitable for

• Domestic and commercial potable water distribution
• Central heating systems and radiator connections
• Sanitary installations in bathrooms and kitchens
• Pipe-routing where a 45° directional change is required

Key specifications

• Material: Copper
• Angle: 45 degrees
• Nominal connection diameter: 35 mm
• Connection method: suitable for soldering or capillary jointing
• Surface finish: smooth internal bore for reduced flow resistance

How to use

Prepare the copper tubing by cutting squarely and cleaning the external tube surface and the fitting bore of oxidation and contaminants. Apply appropriate flux compatible with the chosen soldering method, assemble the joint ensuring full insertion depth, and heat evenly until the solder flows to form a capillary or brazed joint. Allow sufficient cooling time and inspect the joint for continuity and leak-tightness before putting the system into service. Follow applicable local codes and manufacturer guidance for temperature and pressure limits.

Usage recommendations

Use with copper tubing of matching 35 mm outside diameter and ensure proper support and expansion allowances in heating systems. When used in potable water systems, select solders and fluxes approved for drinking water. For gas applications verify suitability with local regulations and use trained personnel for installation.
