Nibco, Inc. 607R 2x11/2 Reducing 90 Degree Elbow

Reducing 90-degree copper elbow

The Nibco 607R joins 2-inch and 1-1/2-inch copper tube using sweat cup connections on both ends. Wrot copper construction suits air, gases and potable water systems. The close-rough pattern keeps the centre-to-end dimension compact for tight rough-in spaces.

Sweat-joint installation notes

Clean tube ends and fitting cups thoroughly, then apply flux before heating evenly with a torch. Uneven heat or dirty surfaces cause voids and leaks at the joint. The reducing step means the two tubes sit at different depths; support both sides while soldering to avoid stress on the completed joint.

Pressure and temperature headroom

Rated for 364 psi at 100 degrees F and up to 400 degrees F, the elbow handles typical residential and light-commercial hot-water and compressed-air lines. It is not intended for steam service or pressures above the listed maximum. The 90-degree turn adds friction loss, so long runs with multiple elbows may need larger tube upstream.
