PVC Pipe Fitting, 90 Degree Elbow, Schedule 40, White, 3/4 Socket x NPT Female (Pack of 10)

The Spears 407 series schedule 40 PVC elbow fitting is designed with a socket opening on one end and male NPT threads on the other, allowing for the connection of pipes at a 90-degree angle to change the direction of flow between pipes. The socket ends are ideal for connecting to pipes with a smooth bore to enhance flow, while the National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads create a tighter seal than straight threads. This elbow fitting, also known as an "ell," is constructed from white PVC (polyvinyl chloride) to provide chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, and a lightweight alternative to metal fittings.

This PVC elbow fitting is compatible with schedule 40 PVC pipes and fittings, and is suitable for use in cold-water pressure distribution systems, including irrigation, pool and spa, potable water, and chilled water applications. It can also be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings. With a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, this fitting meets ASTM International D1784 and D2466 standards for quality assurance and is certified by the National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service.

The schedule 40 PVC elbow fitting is suitable for connecting pipes used to convey drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids across a range of industries. A crucial component in the piping system, pipe fittings are used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in various industries. When selecting pipe fittings, it is important to consider the application, as material type, shape, size, and required durability will vary.
