Nibco, Inc. 906 1-1/2" Copper 45° DWV Elbow C x C
Connects 1-1/2 inch copper DWV pipes at a 45-degree angle with a C x C solder joint, rated to 5 psi and temperatures from -20 to 400 degrees F
- 45° sweep reduces flow resistance in DWV lines
- Wrot copper alloy C12200 resists corrosion for long service
- C x C solder joints create leak-free connections
- Rated from -20 °F to 400 °F for wide temperature range
- Meets ASTM B75 and ASME B16.29 standards
1-1/2" Copper DWV Elbow
This 45-degree elbow is made from wrought copper alloy C12200 and meets ASTM B75 and ASME B16.29 standards. It features a C x C sweat connection for 1-1/2 inch nominal tube with a 1-5/8 inch outside diameter. The fitting handles a maximum pressure of 5 psi across a temperature range of -20 to 400 degrees F. It is designed for drain, waste and vent piping systems.
Installers running copper DWV lines
Plumbers joining horizontal to vertical branches in soil or vent stacks will find the 45-degree angle provides smoother flow than a sharp turn. The sweat ends require flux, solder and a torch, so installers without brazing tools or those needing a press-fit or threaded joint should look at alternative connection types. The 5 psi pressure limit also rules out pressurised supply lines.
Fits 1-1/2" copper DWV pipe
The elbow slides over standard 1-1/2 inch copper tube and joins with a soldered cup-to-cup joint. It frees the layout from tight 90-degree bends that can trap debris and restrict venting. The fitting needs a clean tube end, flux and a heat source to complete the joint, and it connects directly to other C x C copper fittings without adapters.

Questions about this item
What copper pipe size does the 1-1/2" C x C elbow fit?
It fits 1-1/2 inch nominal copper tube with a 1-5/8 inch outside diameter for sweat solder connections.
Can the 45-degree DWV elbow handle a hot-water supply line?
The fitting is rated for temperatures from -20 to 400 degrees F, but its maximum pressure is only 5 psi for drain, waste and vent use.
How do I verify the elbow meets code after soldering?
Inspect for a full fillet of solder around each joint and pressure-test the DWV system at the low 5 psi design limit.
