90° elbow 15 mm - thin-walled galvanized carbon steel press-fit PC5030 0150000

Application in Heating and Cooling Systems

The 90-degree elbow fitting with a 15 mm diameter is an element designed to create durable connections in piping systems where tightness and resistance to environmental conditions are critical. Made of carbon steel and electro-galvanized, it provides additional protection against corrosion inside buildings. Thanks to this solution, installation does not require additional painting or anti-corrosion treatments – the product is ready for immediate use in dry rooms.

Specifically designed for press-fit systems, the fitting eliminates the need for traditional joining methods such as threading or welding. This accelerates the installer's work and reduces the risk of human errors during assembly. The connection is made using a 3-point press, ensuring repeatability and quality of every joint throughout the circuit.

Construction and Key Technical Features

The product features a uniform cross-section (15 mm diameter at both ends) and a bending angle of exactly 90 degrees, allowing precise routing of the installation around obstacles or when changing the pipe direction. The total length is 119.5 mm, which is optimal for this type of fitting in this diameter class.

The material is alloy (carbon) steel, providing high mechanical strength and resistance to impacts during transport or installation. The product surface is coated with electro-galvanic or electrolytic zinc, protecting against rust in indoor conditions. Press-fit ends are ready for immediate pressing without additional edge treatment. The fitting withstands pressure up to 16 bar at 20°C, making it suitable for most standard heating and cooling circuits.

The product dimensions have been selected to facilitate pipeline route planning – with an outer diameter of 15 mm and an angle of 90°, the connector occupies minimal space while maintaining full directional change functionality. The total length of 119.5 mm allows stable seating of the joint even in tight installation spaces. The maximum working pressure of 16 bar (at 20°C) defines the limits of safe operation in typical closed installations.

Application and Operating Conditions

This type of fitting is mainly used in closed heating circuits and cooling systems where extreme atmospheric conditions or direct exposure to external moisture do not occur. Due to the lack of fire safety certifications (UL, FM) and EPDM seals within the material itself (although sealing is achieved via rings in the press head), the product is dedicated to indoor installations with standard operating parameters.

For the installer, this means a simpler process: there is no need to worry about tightening nuts or checking tightening torque – single-pressure pressing is sufficient. For the end user, this guarantees a maintenance-free system that does not require regular inspection of mechanical joint tightness after several years of operation. The fitting is a one-piece element, eliminating the risk of leakage in multi-piece joints due to vibrations or temperature changes.
