Quality assurance design trade assurance pipe fitting pipe elbow

Product descriptions

90-degree sweep elbow for less flow resistance when connecting two pipes or fittings at an angle

Socket ends for connecting to unthreaded male pipes or fittings

PVC for corrosion resistance, high strength, and less weight than fittings made from metal

Smooth interior finish for reduced friction and material buildup

Street elbows are a type of pipe fitting with male threads on one end and female threads on the other.

These fittings can typically be used in tighter quarters than regular elbows since no pipe nipple is required, unlike regular elbows that have two sets of female threads. This street elbows commonly have a 45 degree bend.A variety of applications make use of street elbow fittings, including water supply, gas, and sewage systems.

Regular pipe elbows have female fittings on both ends, either in the form of a receiver for copper or acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) pipe, or as traditional iron threads. In order to connect another female pipe to one of these traditional elbows, a fitting known as a pipe nipple is required. This short fitting has two sets of male threads and can add extra length to the final setup.

Features

The smooth internal surface prevents harmful flow resistance. No special tools or skills needed to install. To connect, just brush cement on the OD of the pipe and into the ID of the fitting. Then quickly insert the pipe into the fitting and rotate one-quarter turn for a permanent bond.

Material Information

Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. Fittings are available in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).

PVC can be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings. This fitting provides superior flow to metal because of its smooth interior finish, which reduces friction and inhibits buildup of materials.
