Uponor Smart Aqua wall elbow – reliability and easy installation

This is a wall elbow from the Uponor Smart Aqua series, designed for connections in plumbing installations made of PEX pipes. Made of dezincification resistant brass (DZR), it ensures durability and corrosion resistance, even in harsh conditions. The angular shape (right angle) makes it easier to run the installation in corners and near walls. The use of a clamping ring guarantees a tight and secure connection, minimizing the risk of leaks.

The elbow is compatible with pipes with an outer diameter of 16 mm and has a Rp 1/2 inch internal thread, allowing easy connection to other installation elements. The maximum operating pressure of 10 bar ensures safe operation of the system. Thanks to its precise workmanship and high-quality materials, the Uponor Smart Aqua elbow is an investment in the long-term and trouble-free operation of the water installation.

Installation and specifications

The elbow is intended for use with PEX pipes in the Uponor Smart Aqua system. Installation is done using a clamping ring, which provides a tight connection without the need for glue or soldering. The length of the elbow is 43 mm, allowing it to be adapted to different installation configurations. It is important to tighten the clamping ring correctly to ensure a complete seal – too little tightening can lead to leaks, and too much – to damage the element or pipe.
