Copper 90-degree long-radius elbow FTG by C, 1-1/4 inch tube size, wrot copper finish

Nibco, Inc.

Nibco, Inc. U6072LT 1-1/4" FTG x C Copper 90 Degree Long Radius Elbow trap

SKU CH-2J9R-2RVJX MPN U6072LT

A wrot-copper 90-degree long-radius elbow joins 1-1/4-inch tube for air, gases or potable water at up to 439 psi and 400 degrees F

  • TypeDrain Components
  • Long-radius 90° elbow reduces flow turbulence
  • FTG × cup ends fit 1 1/4 in copper tube
  • Wrot copper construction handles 439 psi at 100 °F
  • Rated for air, gases and potable water systems
  • Operates up to 400 °F maximum temperature

1-1/4" Copper Long Radius Elbow

This wrot copper 90 degree long radius elbow joins 1-1/4 inch nominal tube with an FTG by cup sweat connection. It suits air, gas and potable water lines in residential and commercial plumbing. The fitting is new and ready for direct installation.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive copper fitting it generates no noise and draws no power. It withstands a maximum operating temperature of 400 degrees F and a maximum operating pressure of 439 psi at 100 degrees F. The long radius bend promotes smooth flow with minimal turbulence.

Upgrade path and fit

This elbow replaces a standard radius 90 degree fitting where reduced friction loss and easier wire pulling are required. The jump is worth it on long horizontal runs or tight clusters where flow efficiency and joint accessibility matter. It does not suit systems needing a shorter centre to centre dimension or a threaded connection.

Questions about this item

How do I sweat the 1-1/4 in FTG x C copper elbow without overheating the joint?

Clean both tube ends and the fitting sockets, apply flux, assemble the joint, then heat evenly with a propane or MAPP torch until the solder flows into the cup; the long-radius bend requires a slightly longer heat soak than a short-radius elbow to draw solder fully around the curve.

What maintenance does the wrot copper elbow need after installation?

No routine maintenance is required; inspect visually for green corrosion or leaks during any system check, and replace the fitting only if a leak develops or the copper shows pitting from aggressive water chemistry.

At what pressure or temperature limit will the elbow fail first under sustained use?

The maximum operating pressure is 439 psi at 100 Degrees F and the maximum operating temperature is 400 Degrees F; sustained exposure near either limit will accelerate stress-corrosion cracking before the copper yields.
