- 90-degree turn directs flow efficiently in tight spaces
- Sweat cup-to-FTG joints create reliable leak-resistant connections

- Rated to 400 °F and 5 psi for hot-water waste lines
- Meets ASME B16.29, ASTM B75 and ISO 9001 standards
Copper Sweat Elbow for Waste Lines
This 90-degree drop elbow joins two 2-inch copper tubes in drainage or vent systems. One end accepts a plain tube while the other slips over a fitting, so the joint is made with standard sweat soldering. The wrought-copper body meets ASME B16.29 and ASTM B75 for reliable waste-line service.
Installers needing a cup-to-fitting turn
Plumbers who must transition from tube to fitting in a single 90-degree sweep will find this part fits the job. It is not intended for pressurised supply lines, so installers who need a fitting rated above 5 psi should select a different component.
Rated for 5 psi at 400 Degrees F
The maximum operating pressure of 5 psi and temperature limit of 400 Degrees F define the safe envelope for this elbow. Verify that the system design stays within these limits before specifying the part.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the elbow is seated correctly after soldering?
Visually inspect that both cup ends are fully inserted to the stop and the joint shows a continuous solder fillet; then pressure-test the line up to 5 psi and check for leaks.
What comes with the 9072 elbow and what must I supply?
The box contains the wrot-copper 90-degree drop elbow only; you must provide 2 in copper tube, flux, lead-free solder and a torch for sweat installation.
Which connection style should I select for a 2 in waste line drop?
Choose the C x FTG version when one end joins a 2 in copper tube and the other slides into a 2 in fitting hub; both ends share the same 2 1/8 in outer diameter.
