Copper Elbow 45° SANHA 42 mm model 1504042

Copper Elbow 45° SANHA 42 mm model 1504042 is a 45-degree copper pipe fitting designed to change the direction of copper piping in plumbing and HVAC systems. The fitting is sized for a 42 mm nominal diameter and is intended for use in potable water, heating and cooling circuits where a compact directional change is required. It can be joined using methods appropriate to the installation system, such as soldering or compatible press-fit connections.

Advantages

This SANHA copper elbow offers corrosion-resistant copper construction and a smooth internal profile that supports steady fluid flow with minimal turbulence. Its 45° angle allows for gentler directional changes compared with 90° elbows, reducing pressure loss in many installations. The fitting's dimensional compatibility with standard 42 mm copper pipe ensures reliable mechanical fit and straightforward integration into existing copper piping systems.

Suitable for

• Residential potable water supply lines
• Heating circuits, including radiator and underfloor systems
• Cooling and chilled water circuits
• Tight or compact installation spaces requiring angled pipe routing

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Angle: 45°
• Nominal diameter: 42 mm
• Application: potable water, heating, cooling circuits
• Connection methods: suitable for soldering or compatible press-fit systems (depending on system requirements)

How to use

Prepare the mating copper pipes by cutting square and removing burrs. Clean the joint surfaces according to the chosen joining method: degrease and flux for soldering, or ensure cleanliness and correct insertion depth for press-fit assemblies. Position the elbow to achieve the required 45° change in direction, then perform the joining procedure following manufacturer guidelines and applicable plumbing codes. After installation, inspect joints for leaks and pressure-test the circuit as required.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow local plumbing regulations. Select the joining method (soldering or press-fit) compatible with existing system components and ensure proper pipe support near directional fittings to minimize mechanical stress on joints.
