Elbow GW 22x3/4 - thin-walled galvanized carbon steel, swaged PC4090G0220600

90° Elbow with Press Fitting and BSPT-Rc Thread

This elbow is manufactured from electrolytically galvanized carbon steel, designed for press-fitted connections with pipes having an outer diameter of 22 mm. On the opposite side, it features an internal tapered gas thread BSPT-Rc (3/4 inch), enabling direct connection to fittings, valves, or other components with threads compliant with EN 10226-1.

Blind or open ends? This is not a matter of choice – the elbow is a one-piece component with no additional openings. There are no gaskets, air vents, or drain valves. Its function is simple: to change the flow direction by 90 degrees, without introducing additional failure points.

All surfaces – both the press fitting and the thread – are galvanized. This is not merely for aesthetics. Galvanization protects against corrosion in humid conditions and facilitates installation while extending the service life of the system. The press fitting includes a stop collar, meaning it does not slide along the pipe during pressing but securely locks in the designated position. There is no need to worry about misalignment or improper crimping.

The overall length is 57 mm – compact yet sufficient to avoid creating a "tangle" during installation in tight spaces. The weight is approximately 164 g. It is not a heavy component, nor does it resemble a plastic toy.

The working pressure is up to 16 bar at 20°C – this is not just a limit for heating or water supply systems; it is a limit for industrial systems and high-pressure installations. In practice: if you have an installation in a residential or commercial building, this component handles the task without issues.

There are no UL, FM, or ULC certifications – but this does not mean it fails to meet requirements. It is simply a European product, designed according to EN standards and intended for use in press-fitted systems within the EU. It does not require American certifications to function correctly.

Installation? It depends on the side:

• On one side: pressing using the appropriate tool (e.g., B Press).
• On the other side: manual or mechanical threading, standard for BSPT-Rc.

There are no gaskets – so there is no need to replace them. There is no plastic – so it will not overheat or deform at temperatures above 90°C (assuming material stability).

This component is for those who seek a durable connection, without additional components, without the risk of leaks from gaskets, and without unnecessary complexity.
