Description
Domestic Wrot Copper Fitting x Copper Long Turn 90° Elbow
Domestic wrot copper fitting x copper long-turn 90-degree elbows provide a smooth right-angle change in direction using one male fitting end and one female copper sweat socket. The fitting end inserts directly into a compatible copper fitting, while the copper sweat socket accepts properly sized copper tube.
Select the required nominal copper tube size from the product options above. The selected variation determines the Cello item number, online selling price, shipping weight, cost, and other size-specific product information.

How a Fitting x Copper Long Turn 90° Elbow Works
The male fitting end inserts directly into the female solder cup of a compatible copper fitting. The opposite female copper sweat socket fits over properly sized copper tube. After all joining surfaces are cleaned and prepared, the connections are assembled with approved flux and soldered or brazed to create a compact long-turn right-angle connection.
Long Turn Street vs. Short-Radius Street 90° Elbow
Long Turn Street 90° Elbow
- Uses one fitting end and one copper sweat socket
- Changes direction by 90 degrees
- Uses a larger bend radius
- Creates a smoother directional change
- Useful where reduced turbulence is preferred
Short-Radius Street 90° Elbow
- Uses one fitting end and one copper sweat socket
- Changes direction by 90 degrees
- Uses a more compact bend radius
- Fits into tighter installation spaces
- Commonly used for compact fitting-to-tube transitions
Common Applications
Plumbing and Mechanical Systems
- Potable-water piping
- Residential plumbing systems
- Commercial plumbing installations
- Mechanical-room piping
- Heating-system piping
- Copper distribution piping
HVAC and Equipment Connections
- Air-conditioning piping
- Refrigeration systems
- Heat-pump installations
- Equipment connections
- Vertical and horizontal transitions
- Maintenance and retrofit work
Installation Guidance
- Confirm the required nominal copper tube size before installation.
- Clean and prepare the fitting end, receiving fitting socket, copper tube end, and sweat socket properly.
- Use approved flux, solder, brazing alloy, and joining procedures for the application.
- Insert the male fitting end fully into the receiving fitting socket.
- Insert the copper tube fully into the female sweat socket.
- Align the piping and fittings correctly before heating the joints.
- Allow sufficient space for the larger long-turn radius.
- Protect nearby valves, seals, insulation, and equipment from excessive heat.
- Support connected piping to avoid mechanical strain on the elbow.
- Pressure-test and inspect completed joints before placing the system into service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a copper fitting x copper long-turn 90-degree elbow used for?
It creates a smooth 90-degree transition between a compatible female copper fitting socket and a copper-tube run.
What does fitting x copper mean?
One end is a male fitting end that inserts into a female copper fitting socket. The other end is a female copper sweat socket that fits over copper tube.
Is this a street elbow?
Yes. A street elbow has one male fitting end and one female copper sweat socket.
Is this a long-turn elbow?
Yes. The WP7LT-2 series is a long-turn fitting x copper 90-degree street elbow.
How is this different from a short-radius street elbow?
The long-turn pattern uses a larger bend radius for a smoother directional change. A short-radius street elbow has a more compact profile.
Does the fitting end go inside another copper fitting?
Yes. The male fitting end inserts directly into a properly sized female copper fitting socket.
Does the copper end fit over copper tube?
Yes. The female copper sweat socket fits over properly sized copper tube.
How is the elbow installed?
The joining surfaces are cleaned, prepared with approved flux, assembled, and soldered or brazed according to accepted procedures and applicable codes.
Is this a domestic copper fitting?
Yes. This product is listed as a domestic wrot copper pressure fitting.
Who manufactures this elbow?
This product is manufactured by Cello Products.
Can it be used in potable-water systems?
It may be used in compatible potable-water systems when installed according to applicable codes, standards, manufacturer requirements, and approved joining procedures.
Can it be used for refrigeration or HVAC piping?
It may be used in compatible HVAC and refrigeration systems when the material, size, joining procedure, pressure, temperature, and system requirements are appropriate.
