Description
This fitting is designed to provide a 90° change in direction while transitioning from metric PVC pipework to imperial threaded components. Manufactured from high-quality PVCu, it offers a strong and corrosion-resistant solution for installations where space constraints or pipe routing require a right-angle connection.
The metric plain socket allows for a permanent solvent weld joint, while the imperial BSPP threaded outlet connects directly to valves, pumps or other threaded equipment. Precision-moulded threads ensure reliable compatibility and sealing when installed with appropriate thread sealant.
Suitable for potable water, commercial plumbing and industrial pipework systems, this adaptor elbow delivers a neat and professional method of combining metric solvent weld pipe with imperial threaded connections, while maintaining full pressure performance and compliance with recognised standards when installed using the correct solvent cement and cleaner.
