Spears 1413 PVC Tube Fitting, 90 Degree Elbow, 1/2 Barbed x NPT Male

This 90-degree PVC elbow fitting from the Spears 1413 series features a barbed male insert on one end and male NPT threads on the other, making it ideal for creating a transition from rigid pipe to flexible polyethylene tubing at a 90-degree angle. The barbed end allows for quick connection to tubing, while the National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads provide a tighter seal than straight threads. Made of gray PVC (polyvinyl chloride), this elbow fitting offers chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, and is lighter in weight compared to metal fittings.

The threaded end is compatible with schedule 40 PVC pipes and fittings, and is suitable for cold-water pressure distribution systems including irrigation, pool and spa, potable water, and chilled water applications. PVC can also be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings. The barbed end is compatible with SIDR-PR (standard inside dimension ratios, pressure rated) flexible polyethylene tubing according to ASTM International standard D2239, or standard D2104 schedule 40 polyethylene tubing. With a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, this fitting meets ASTM International D1784 and D2609 standards for quality assurance and is certified by National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service.

This PVC elbow fitting is suitable for connecting flexible polyethylene tubing to rigid pipe for conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids in a range of industries. It is an essential component for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in various industries. Spears Manufacturing, the company behind this high-quality fitting, produces thermoplastic fittings and valves for fluid, drain, waste, and vent systems. The company, which was founded in 1969 and is headquartered in Sylmar, CA, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001.

In summary, this 90-degree elbow fitting is the perfect choice for connecting flexible polyethylene tubing to pipe at an angle, offering durability, reliability, and high performance for a wide range of applications.
