pipe elbow 90 degree

What is a 90 degree pipe elbow

The 90° pipe elbow connects tubes at a 90° angle. As the name suggests, the elbow forms a right angle. This type of elbow, also known as a “90 bend” or “90 ell,” is a pipe fitting designed to create a 90° change in the direction of fluid or gas flow within the pipe.

What is a 90 degree elbow used for?

A 90° elbow easily connects to pipes made from various materials, such as plastic, copper, cast iron, steel, lead, and rubber. In other words, 90° elbows create a joint between two pipes positioned at right angles to each other. They are also used as railing ends or corners in level installations.

More application：

  •  A pipe elbow is a fitting used to add a 90 degree angle to an application.
  • They are used to connect male threaded fittings or pipes at an angle.
  •  90 degree elbows are often used to connect two pipes at right angles.
  • This allows them to change the flow direction or angle of a pipe stystem.
  • Threaded pipe fittings are used to establish mechanical joints between pipes and are often used in noncritical applications such as domestic water supplies and water-cooling systems.

Also Known as a:

  • 90 Degree Elbow Fitting.
  • 90° Elbow Fitting.
  • Plumbing Elbows.
  • NPT Elbow.

Size Classification:

  • A threaded elbow 90 is classified according to the size of the pipe thread they will connect to.
  • For Example: a 1/2″ 90 degree elbow will connect to a 1/2″ male NPT thread.

90 degree long radius elbow

LR 90 degree steel pipe elbows are installed between pipes or conduits of different lengths. It helps to change direction at 90 degrees and is commonly used to connect hoses to pumps, deck drains, and valves.

Short radius 90 degree elbow

The SR 90 degree elbow is the same as the aforementioned pipeline elbow, but with a shorter diameter. Therefore, this type of steel elbow is often used when space is limited.

Advantages:

Since it has female threads it is well suited to connect two male threaded fittings or pipes while saving space.

These smooth radius 90 degree elbow vacuum pipe fittings have standard modulus and are made with 304 stainless steel. They are used to make a right angle change of direction between two ISO-KF flange faces.

  • 90° smooth elbows with standard modulus
  • 304 Stainless Steel construction
  • NW16 to NW50 flange sizes

Installation:

Thread the female NPT threads onto a male NPT thread.

More Information

Threaded 90 ° elbow fittings are widely used in pipelines and piping systems, most commonly used to promote 90 degree changes in flow direction. These threaded fittings are essentially a 90 degree curved pipe with internal threads (external threads) on both ends. This allows it to be connected to pipes or externally threaded fittings at a 90 degree right angle.

The stainless steel 90 degree elbow has internal threads on both ends, which can be easily installed by simply screwing it onto the corresponding external threaded pipe or accessory. Its NPT tapered thread ensures a safe and waterproof connection, making it an ideal choice for various applications, including residential, commercial, and industrial pipeline applications. This stainless steel elbow joint is made of stainless steel 304 and 316, ensuring corrosion resistance and service life in various environments.
