Manufactured from AISI 316L stainless steel (EN 1.4404), it is suited to demanding environments where hygiene, durability, and corrosion resistance are critical requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 87.5° angle is commonly specified in drainage systems as a practical alternative to a true 90° bend, allowing smooth directional changes with reduced flow turbulence. The fitting connects into adjacent pipework via BLÜCHER's push-fit socket system, enabling straightforward installation between straight pipe sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAISI 316L stainless steel is selected for its low carbon content, excellent resistance to corrosion and chlorides, smooth hygienic surface finish, and suitability for chemical and washdown environments. These properties make it a reliable choice across a broad range of industries and applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine and shipbuilding — grey water, black water, drainage, and accommodation services\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFood and beverage — hygienic drainage, production washdown, and food manufacturing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePharmaceutical and healthcare — clean drainage, laboratories, and hospitals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommercial buildings — airports, hotels, shopping centres, and industrial kitchens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater and wastewater — treatment facilities and process drainage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSummary:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBLÜCHER 87.5° stainless steel pipe bend for directional changes in drainage and process piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: AISI 316L stainless steel \/ EN 1.4404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent corrosion and chloride resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth, hygienic, and cleanable internal surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-fit socket connection into BLÜCHER EuroPipe system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApprovals include HACCP, ABS, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas, RINA, and KR (dependent on system)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Flocon","offers":[{"title":"160mm","offer_id":58687962972544,"sku":"129.BLU.820.090.160","price":237.53,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0524\/4531\/5228\/files\/Stainless_20Steel_2087.5_C2_B0_20Pipe_20Bend_20_282_29.jpg?v=1786587743","url":"https:\/\/www.flocon.co.uk\/products\/stainless-steel-87-5-pipe-bend-1","provider":"Flocon Valves Pipes \u0026 Fittings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
