Description
Domestic Cleaned & Bagged Wrot Copper 90° Long-Turn Elbow – C x C
Domestic cleaned and bagged C x C wrot copper 90° long-turn elbows provide a smooth right-angle directional change using female copper sweat sockets on both ends. The longer-radius configuration creates a more gradual turn than a standard 90-degree elbow and is useful where smoother flow and reduced directional restriction are preferred.

How a Copper 90° Long-Turn Elbow Works
Each end of the elbow contains a female copper sweat socket designed to fit over properly sized copper tube. The longer-radius body changes the direction of the piping by 90 degrees while creating a more gradual transition than a standard short-radius elbow.
Long-Turn vs. Standard 90° Elbow
90° Long-Turn Elbow
- Uses a longer-radius bend
- Creates a smoother 90-degree directional change
- Provides a more gradual flow path
- Requires more installation space than a standard elbow
Standard 90° Elbow
- Uses a more compact bend radius
- Creates a tighter right-angle turn
- Requires less installation space
- Commonly used where compact routing is the priority
Cleaned & Bagged Construction
Each long-turn elbow is cleaned and enclosed in protective packaging to help preserve the condition of its internal and external joining surfaces during storage, transportation, and handling. Keep the fitting sealed in its original bag until immediately before installation.
Cleaned and bagged copper fittings are commonly specified for piping systems where dirt, oil, grease, moisture, metal particles, and other contaminants must be carefully controlled. Confirm that the fitting, cleaning level, packaging, joining procedure, and installation requirements satisfy the project specifications and applicable codes.
Common Applications
Clean and Controlled Piping
- Medical-gas piping installations
- Laboratory piping systems
- Institutional piping projects
- Clean mechanical piping
- Process piping requiring protected fittings
- Projects specifying cleaned and bagged copper components
Long-Radius Directional Changes
- Mechanical-room piping
- Heating and cooling systems
- HVAC and refrigeration piping
- Equipment connections
- Commercial plumbing systems
- Applications requiring a smoother 90-degree turn
Installation Guidance
- Confirm the required nominal copper tube size before ordering.
- Allow sufficient installation space for the longer-radius elbow body.
- Verify that cleaned and bagged fittings meet the project specifications.
- Keep the fitting sealed until immediately before installation.
- Handle the fitting using clean gloves and approved tools when required.
- Do not use the fitting if the protective package is damaged or the fitting appears contaminated.
- Inspect both copper sweat sockets and copper tube ends before assembly.
- Cut copper tube square and remove burrs using approved procedures.
- Prepare the tube and fitting surfaces according to the approved joining method.
- Insert both copper tubes fully into the elbow sockets.
- Align the 90-degree direction before heating the joints.
- Use approved solder, brazing alloy, purge gas, flux, and joining procedures.
- Follow applicable medical-gas requirements when installed in medical-gas piping.
- Support connected piping to prevent mechanical strain on completed joints.
- Pressure-test and inspect the completed system before placing it into service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a copper 90° long-turn elbow?
It is a wrot copper elbow with a longer-radius body that changes the direction of the piping by 90 degrees.
How is a long-turn elbow different from a standard 90° elbow?
A long-turn elbow uses a more gradual bend radius and requires more installation space than a standard compact 90-degree elbow.
Are both connections female copper sockets?
Yes. Both ends are female copper sweat sockets designed to fit over properly sized copper tube.
Are both connections the same size?
Yes. The listed long-turn elbows use equal-size copper connections.
Why would I use a long-turn elbow?
A long-turn elbow is useful where a smoother directional transition is preferred and sufficient installation space is available.
Why is the fitting cleaned and bagged?
The protective packaging helps prevent dirt, oil, grease, moisture, metal particles, and other contaminants from contacting the fitting before installation.
Can this elbow be brazed?
Yes, when brazing is appropriate and completed using approved materials, procedures, purge requirements, and applicable codes.
Can this elbow be soldered?
It may be soldered when permitted by the application, project specification, and applicable code.
Is this a domestic copper fitting?
Yes. It is listed as a domestic cleaned and bagged wrot copper fitting manufactured by Cello Products.
Can it be used in medical-gas piping?
It may be used when the fitting, cleaning level, packaging, joining procedure, and installation satisfy the project specifications and applicable medical-gas requirements.
Does the selected size determine the SKU and price?
Yes. Each nominal size has its own Cello SKU, online selling price, estimated shipping weight, and cost.
Important Ordering Notes
- Select the required nominal copper tube size before adding the product to your cart.
