1406 Series PVC 90 Degree Elbow Fitting, 1-1/2 Barbed

The Spears 1406 series tube fitting is a 90-degree elbow made of gray polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic for connecting schedule 40 polyethylene (PE) pipe at an angle. This elbow has barbed fittings on both ends to create a secure seal on flexible PE pipe when used with a hose clamp (available for separate purchase). PVC is lightweight and resistant to corrosion, with high strength to withstand reactions with acids, gasoline, alcohol, and hydrocarbons. The fitting meets ASTM International standards for plastic insert fittings for use with PE pipe (ASTM D 2609) and schedule 40 standards for wall thickness, supporting working pressure up to 140 psi. Additionally, it is NSF certified for use with potable water.

Pipe fittings are essential components for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in various industries. Consider the application when purchasing pipe fittings, as this will impact material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings come in threaded or unthreaded options, in various shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness). Spears Manufacturing, founded in 1969 and based in Sylmar, CA, produces thermoplastic fittings and valves for fluid, drain, waste, and vent systems. The company meets the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001.
