PPR Elbow 45° f/m

The PPR Elbow 45° f/m is a PP-R socket fusion elbow that turns a hot or cold water line by 45°. It has a socket end for the pipe and a spigot end that fuses directly into another fitting or valve, rated PN25 to EN ISO 15874-3, in Ø20 and Ø25.

The PPR Elbow 45° f/m is a 45° bend for PP-R pipelines with one female and one male end. The pipe fuses into the socket end. The spigot end fuses directly into the socket of another fitting or a valve, so the line changes direction by 45° with no extra piece of pipe. This keeps the turn short, which is useful where a pipe has to cross or pass close to another line and there is no room for a gradual bend. The fitting is made of PP-R, rated PN25 and conforms to EN ISO 15874-3, the standard for polypropylene fittings in hot and cold water installations. Its operating temperature is 70 °C, with a maximum of 95 °C. It comes in Ø20 and Ø25, in white or grey, as part of the THERMALINO Eternal line of PPR fittings. It is used in drinking water and domestic hot water lines, in heating circuits that stay within its temperature limits, and in other water lines in residential, commercial and industrial buildings. Before you use it for anything other than water, check the medium against the chemical resistance table in the technical data sheet. Pressure ratings at different temperatures are also given there. Both ends are joined by socket fusion with a standard PP-R welding tool. Each joint is made the same way as any other socket fusion joint, with the heating time, insertion depth and cooling time set by the pipe diameter. The spigot end is heated on the socket side of the heating tool, then pushed into the socket of the mating fitting or valve.
