Single-sleeve 45° elbow 108 mm - thin-walled galvanized carbon steel, crimped PC5040 1080000

Application and Characteristics of the Fitting

This component is a specialized solution for creating bent installation routes where a precise 45-degree pipe deviation is required. Made from thin-walled carbon steel, it is used to join pipes in press-fit systems, which is the standard in modern sanitary and heating installations. Thanks to the use of galvanic zinc coating, the product surface gains an additional protective layer against corrosion, which is crucial for installation in areas with high humidity or inside walls.

The fitting combines two different types of ends, facilitating installation in challenging spatial conditions:

• One side features a compression sleeve, allowing for quick and leak-tight connection to the pipe using a dedicated tool.
• The other side is a push-in end, designed to ensure the pipe is securely seated before the pressing process.

This design eliminates the need for additional transition elements, reducing the installer's working time and minimizing the number of potential leak points.

Construction and Installation Process

The material used for production is alloy steel, which provides adequate mechanical strength while maintaining a lightweight structure. The thin-walled construction allows for easier pressing without the risk of damaging the tools or the pipe itself. The surface is electrolytically galvanized, ensuring a uniform protective layer across the entire component, including hard-to-reach areas of the bend.

The joining process is based on the press-fitting principle, offering several significant advantages:

• Installation speed: No welding or threading is required, eliminating the risk of burns and metal dust.
• Repeatability: Each connection is made according to the same force and clamping time pattern.
• Leak-tightness: The connection is durable and resistant to vibrations and temperature changes.

It is important to note that this product is intended exclusively for systems based on the press-fitting method. It is not suitable for traditional threaded or glued installation without appropriate adapters.

Technical Characteristics and Application

This component features a 45-degree bending angle and a single-bell construction, meaning there is one sealing collar at the joint location. The base material is carbon (alloy) steel, protected by a galvanic coating to enhance corrosion resistance. Thanks to this, the fitting is suitable for both water supply and heating installations, where high mechanical strength combined with resistance to external factors is required.

Installation is based on the press-fitting method:

1. The pipe is inserted into the push-in end until it stops.
2. Next, the compression sleeve is pressed once using a specialized hydraulic or manual press tool.
3. A permanent mechanical and sealing connection is formed, requiring no additional operations such as screwing or welding.

Choosing this model allows for changes in the pipe route direction without the need for complex arrangements involving multiple straight sections and straight connectors, resulting in fewer potential leak points and a more aesthetically pleasing appearance of the finished concealed or visible installation.
