45° Elbow SP/SP PVC-U 2" 417-020

PVC-U 45° Elbow – Reliability and Durability in Installations

This 45° elbow made of PVC-U (polyvinyl chloride) with a diameter of 60.2 mm (2 inches) is a key element of piping systems, ensuring tight and durable connections. The fitting is designed for gluing, which guarantees quick and safe installation without the need for complex tools. The Nibco brand product (catalog number 417-020) is perfect for both cold water, air conditioning, and industrial installations where resistance to various chemical compounds is required.

Wide Application and Unique Properties

The PVC-U elbow is characterized by exceptional resistance to corrosion, scale build-up, and the action of many chemical substances. This material is physiologically and microbiologically inert, making it an ideal choice for drinking water installations. Additionally, the smooth inner surface of the pipes minimizes flow resistance, and the fitting design ensures full cross-sectional flow.

• Long-term operation: PVC-U material ensures durability for at least 50 years.
• Chemical resistance: Resistant to the action of several hundred chemical compounds.
• Easy installation: Glued connection eliminates the need for specialized tools.
• High hygiene: Physiological and microbiological inertness – safe for drinking water.
• Noise reduction: Vibration and noise damping properties ensure comfortable use.
• Lightweight: Several times lighter than traditional materials (metal).
• Thermal insulation: Reduces condensation of water vapor on cold water pipes.
• Fire safety: The material does not support the combustion process.
• No galvanic corrosion: Electrical insulation protects against corrosion in the ground.

Construction and Installation

The 45° angle of the elbow allows for precise routing of the piping installation, and the standard IPS dimensioning system ensures compatibility with other installation elements. Installation is done by gluing with a special PVC-U glue, which guarantees the tightness and durability of the connection. It is important to thoroughly clean and degrease the surface before gluing to achieve optimal results. The fitting is white, which facilitates identification in the installation and provides an aesthetic appearance.
