Copper 45° Elbow VIEGA 2626.1, Diameter 15 mm, Pack of 5

VIEGA 2626.1 Copper 45° Elbow, diameter 15 mm, pack of 5, is a copper plumbing fitting designed for angled connections in potable water, heating and refrigeration systems. The elbow provides a 45-degree change of direction and is suitable for soldered or press-fit installation methods. Supplied in a set of five identical fittings, it is intended for use where corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity and a compact elbow profile are required.

Advantages

This copper 45° elbow combines the material properties of copper with a compact angled geometry to deliver reliable joint performance. The fitting is compatible with press connections featuring an HNBR sealing element and is manufactured to integrate with systems that use press technology and plug-in ends. Copper construction ensures good heat transfer for heating and refrigeration applications and offers long-term resistance to corrosion in potable water systems.

Suitable for

• Potable water supply pipelines
• Domestic and commercial heating installations
• Refrigeration and air-conditioning lines
• Soldered or press-fit copper pipe assemblies
• Compact installations requiring 45° directional changes

Key specifications

• Material: Copper
• Angle: 45°
• Nominal diameter: 15 mm
• Connection type: Plug-in end with press connection
• Sealing material: HNBR sealing element
• Pack quantity: 5 pieces

How to use

Select the appropriate 15 mm copper pipe and prepare the pipe ends according to the chosen joining method (clean and deburr for soldering, or cut square and mark for press-fit). For press installation, ensure the press tool and jaw match the fitting specifications and that the HNBR sealing element is intact and correctly positioned. For soldered joints, follow standard cleaning and fluxing procedures before brazing or soldering. After assembly, verify the elbow alignment and perform a pressure test of the system in accordance with local codes and industry best practices.

Usage recommendations

Store fittings in a dry, dust-free environment prior to installation to protect the sealing elements. Use compatible press tools and calibrated jaws when making press connections, and observe recommended assembly procedures to ensure leak-free joints. Avoid mechanical damage to the fitting bore and sealing element during handling. Follow applicable regulations for potable water and heating system commissioning and testing.
