Elbow Copper Fittings

Copper fittings are essential components in plumbing and HVAC systems, used to connect different sections of copper pipes. They come in various shapes and sizes to facilitate changes in direction, branching, and transitions between different pipe diameters. Here are the key types and characteristics of copper fittings:Types of Copper Fittings:Elbows:Used to change the direction of a pipe (typically 90° or 45° angles).Available in various sizes and types, including short and long radius.Tees:Shaped like the letter "T," these fittings allow three pipes to connect, enabling branching off from a main line.Reducers:Used to connect pipes of different diameters, transitioning from a larger pipe to a smaller one (or vice versa).Caps:Used to close the end of a pipe, preventing flow through that section.Couplings:Connect two lengths of pipe of the same diameter, allowing for a continuous flow.Adapters:Used to connect copper pipes to other types of pipes or fittings, such as PVC or PEX.
