45° elbow SC 18 copper / shiny, model 24261 Profipress 292560

Profipress 45° Elbow – Reliability and Durability of Connections

This one-piece 45° elbow from the Profipress series, manufactured from copper, is a critical component in piping systems. Designed for press-fit connections, it ensures leak-tightness and durability in water and heating systems. Its design enables fast and secure installation, saving time for the installer and enhancing end-user comfort.

Features and Applications

The Profipress 24261 elbow is designed for pipes with an outer diameter of 18 mm. Constructed from copper with bronze connection points and EPDM seals, it guarantees long-term leak-tightness and corrosion resistance. The 45° angle allows precise routing of installations, avoiding obstacles and adapting to project-specific requirements. The raw surface finish of the connection areas ensures optimal grip during pressing.

• Fast Installation: The Profipress system eliminates the need for welding or soldering, significantly reducing installation time.
• Leak-Tightness: Precise manufacturing and high-quality EPDM seals ensure reliable, leak-free connections.
• Durability: Copper and bronze are corrosion-resistant materials, ensuring long service life.
• Versatility: Suitable for water, heating, and gas installations (in compliance with applicable standards).
• System Compatibility: Fully compatible with Profipress pipe systems, ensuring seamless system integration.

Design and Specifications

The elbow is designed as a single-piece component, minimizing the risk of joint loosening over time. Connection 1 is a compression nut (mufa), and Connection 2 is a push-in fitting (wtyk), facilitating installation in various system configurations. Both connection surfaces and the fittings themselves are supplied in a raw state — standard for press-fit components prepared for the crimping process. This ensures a more efficient pressing operation and a more durable joint. The maximum operating pressure at 20°C is 16 bar, confirming its reliability under demanding operational conditions.
