SANHA press elbow 45° connector 28 mm, press-fit copper fitting (model 1604128)

SANHA press elbow 45° connector 28 mm is a press-fit copper fitting designed for creating a 45-degree angled joint between compatible copper or related plumbing pipes. The fitting enables solder-free connections using appropriate press tools and rings, providing a neat, compact joint suitable for heating, potable water and sanitary installations. It is intended for use where a change in direction is required without welding or brazing and where reliable mechanical sealing is preferred.

Advantages

The press-fit construction allows quick, repeatable installation with reduced heat exposure to surrounding materials compared with soldering. Made from copper, the connector offers corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity appropriate for hot-water systems. The 45° angle design helps achieve smooth directional changes in pipe runs while maintaining a compact footprint and minimal flow disturbance. Installation with certified press jaws and O-ring or press sleeve systems provides a consistent mechanical seal and reduces the risk of leaks when installed according to manufacturer guidelines.

Suitable for

• Hot and cold potable water distribution systems
• Central heating and radiator connections
• Sanitary installations in residential and commercial buildings
• Renovation projects where open-flame soldering is to be avoided

Key specifications

• Material: copper press fitting
• Connection type: press-fit for use with compatible press tools and rings
• Angle: 45° elbow
• Nominal size: 28 mm outside diameter
• Application temperature: suitable for typical heating and potable water temperatures (follow system requirements)

How to use

Select the correct press tool and press jaws compatible with the press system in use. Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and deburring the inner and outer edges. Slide the appropriate press sleeve or ring onto the pipe if required by the system, insert the pipe fully into the fitting until it seats, and operate the press tool to make a single, complete press cycle. Verify the integrity of each joint visually and, where applicable, by pressure testing the installation according to local regulations and project specifications.

Usage recommendations

Use only press tools, jaws and rings recommended by the press system manufacturer. Do not use the connector with incompatible materials or without the specified sealing element. Follow local plumbing codes and perform pressure testing after installation to confirm leak-free joints.
