PVC Pipe Fitting, 90 Degree Elbow, White, 1-1/2 Socket x NPT Female

This Spears 407 series schedule 40 PVC elbow fitting features a socket opening on one end and male NPT threads on the other. It is designed for connecting pipes at a 90-degree angle to change the direction of flow between pipes. The socket ends are designed to connect to pipes with a smooth bore for enhanced flow, while the National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads create a tighter seal than straight threads. Made of white PVC (polyvinyl chloride), this elbow fitting provides chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, and weighs less than fittings made from metal. It 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.

This PVC elbow fitting has a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, meets ASTM International D1784 and D2466 standards for quality assurance, and is certified by the National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service. It can be used to connect pipes for conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids in a range of industries. Additionally, PVC can be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings.

Pipe fittings are essential components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in various industries. When choosing pipe fittings, it is important to consider the application, as this will impact the material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in a variety of shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
