In the pipeline system, the elbow is a pipe fitting that changes the direction of the pipeline. According to the angle, there are three kinds of the most commonly used, 45 ° and 90 ° 180 °. In addition, according to engineering needs, it also includes other abnormal angles such as 60 °. The materials of the elbows are cast iron, stainless steel, alloy steel, malleable cast iron, carbon steel, non-ferrous metals and plastics.
The ways to connect with the pipe are: direct welding (the most common way) flange connection, hot melt connection, electric fusion connection, screw connection and socket connection. According to the production process, it can be divided into: welding elbow, stamping elbow, push elbow, casting elbow, butt welding elbow, etc. Other names: 90 degree elbow, right angle bend, etc.
The elbow is a kind of connecting pipe commonly used in plumbing installation. It is used for the connection of the pipe corner and used to change the direction of the pipe.
Other names: 90 ° elbow, right angle bend, Elbow, stamping elbow, pressing elbow, machine elbow, welding elbow, etc
Uses: Connect two pipes with the same or different nominal diameter to make the pipe turn 90 °, 45 °, 180 ° and various degrees.
Bending radius less than or equal to 1.5 times the pipe diameter belongs to the elbow, and greater than 1.5 times the pipe diameter belongs to the bent pipe.
