Product Overview

The 1/2 in. Tectite by Apollo Push-to-Connect Drop Ear Elbow is the fastest, cleanest and simplest way to create a 90 joint of any combination of copper, CPVC, PE-RT and PEX pipe without the use of tools, solder, open flame or glue. This fitting features Tectite by Apollo push-to-connect technology on both ends. The integrated mounting plate allows the fitting to be secured to a sturdy component of the structure to ensure pipe alignment. To make a connection, simply insert the pipe to allow the high-strength stainless steel teeth to grip the pipe securely against the specially designed o-ring. Fitting removal and reuse is just as simple using a simple demount clip (sold separately). After assembly, fittings may be rotated for simpler installation in tight spaces. All Tectite by Apollo fittings are approved for use in both potable water and hydronic heating piping systems.
