SKU CH-M8MT-3KTD9 MPN U6072LT

A 90-degree long-radius copper elbow with FTG x C connections rated to 582 psi at 100 degrees F

  • TypeDrain Components
  • Long-radius 90-degree turn reduces flow restriction
  • Wrot copper construction handles 582 psi at 100 degrees F
  • Rated from -20 to 400 degrees F for wide thermal range
  • FTG x C connection fits 3/4 inch nominal tubing
  • Meets ASME/ANSI B16.22 standard for copper fittings

Application & Audience

The Nibco U6072LT is a 90-degree long-radius elbow made from wrot copper for plumbing systems. It connects a 3/4-inch tube fitting to a copper sweat joint in water, heating or cooling lines.

Critical Specification

The fitting is rated for a maximum pressure of 582 psi at 100 degrees F and handles temperatures from 20 degrees to 400 degrees F. It meets ASME/ANSI B 16.22 standards for wrought copper pressure fittings.

Installation Notes

Sweat the copper-to-copper joint with appropriate flux and lead-free solder after cleaning both surfaces. The long-radius bend eases flow but needs enough straight run for the fitting depth; verify the 7/8-inch outside diameter clears surrounding structure before soldering.

Questions about this item

What does the 582 psi rating mean when this elbow is installed in a working system?

It indicates the maximum pressure the fitting can handle at 100 degrees Fahrenheit, so the system pressure must stay below that limit at that temperature.

How does the ASME/ANSI B 16.22 standard affect what this copper elbow can do?

The standard governs the dimensions and tolerances for wrought copper fittings, ensuring this elbow matches the required specifications for solder-joint connections.

What tube size and connection type are needed to fit this 90-degree long-radius elbow?

It requires a 3/4 inch nominal tube with a fitting-by-copper (FTG x C) connection for proper soldering.
