TP PVCu 90° Elbow Plain
Joining two lengths of PVC pipe at an exact 90° angle, the fitting uses smooth socket ends secured with PVC solvent cement to create a permanent, chemical bond that far outperforms threaded alternatives in both strength and leak resistance. The result is a joint capable of handling high operating pressures without compromise, making it a trusted choice for water distribution networks, swimming pools, aquariums, and agricultural irrigation systems.
Manufactured from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVCu), the elbow holds its own against a wide range of acids and alkalis, making it equally at home in demanding industrial environments. Its smooth internal bore minimises friction and pressure loss as liquid moves through the directional turn, maintaining consistent flow rates across the system.
Summary:
- Used to permanently connect two lengths of PVC pipe at a strict 90° angle
- Both ends are smooth sockets that are secured using PVC solvent cement rather than threaded connections
- Solvent weld creates a strong, leak resistant chemical bond with the pipe, allowing it to handle high operating pressures
- Manufactured from unplasticised polyvinyl cloride (PVCu) meaning it will handle a wide range of acids and alkalis
- Minimises friction and pressure loss as liquid moves through the directional turn
Applications:
Primarily used in pressure pipe systems such as water distribution, swimming pools, aquariums and agricultural irrigation as well as drainage and industrial settings
