Nibco, Inc. 9072 2" C x FTG Copper 90 Degree Drop Elbow

SKU CH-RJ9G-MGHV7

A 90-degree copper drop elbow connects 2-inch sweat fittings for waste lines up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and 5 psi

  • 90-degree turn directs flow efficiently in tight spaces
  • Sweat cup-to-FTG joints create reliable leak-resistant connections
  • Wrot copper construction resists corrosion for long service life
  • 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.
