Press-fit elbows create a compact change of direction in compatible pipework. They are commonly used where a pipe cannot be bent to the required radius or where a precise 90-degree turn makes the installation neater and easier to route.
The elbow must match the pipe material, diameter, seal type and approved press profile. Consider whether a swept pipe bend could reduce fittings and improve flow before adding an elbow.
Cut and prepare both pipe ends correctly, insert them fully and press each socket with the specified tool and jaw. The adjoining pipework should be aligned and supported so the fitting is not used to pull an inaccurate run into position.
Browse the press-fit elbows below and combine them with tees, couplings and other copper press fittings for a complete plumbing or heating installation. You may also find the related press-fit tees and copper press fittings useful when completing the system.
