CPVC Male Threaded Elbow (Brass) – 3/4″ x 1/2″ (20mm x 15mm)

Description

The 3/4″ x 1/2″ CPVC Male Threaded Elbow (Brass) is an essential and highly reliable fitting for creating a secure turn and junction in a CPVC piping system. Made from durable chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, this fitting features a solvent-weld socket on one end and a high-quality brass insert with male threads on the other. This combination ensures a permanent, leak-proof bond with the CPVC pipe while providing a robust and corrosion-resistant connection point for threaded metal fittings or fixtures at a 90-degree angle.

Uses:

• Changing Direction and Connecting: The primary use of this elbow is to change the direction of a main CPVC pipe run and create a secure, male-threaded outlet for a valve, a filter, or a drain valve.

• Transitioning from Plastic to Metal: It is commonly used to create a durable connection point between a CPVC system and a metal component. The brass insert provides superior strength and durability compared to plastic threads.

• Streamlining Plumbing Layouts: This fitting combines the function of a standard elbow with a durable threaded outlet, simplifying the plumbing layout and reducing the number of potential leak points.

Advantages:

• Enhanced Strength and Durability: The brass insert provides a significantly stronger and more durable threaded connection than all-plastic fittings, which reduces the risk of thread stripping or cracking over time.

• High Temperature and Pressure Resistance: The fitting is designed to handle hot and cold water applications, withstanding temperatures up to 200°F (93°C) and maintaining durability under a wide range of operating pressures.

• Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: While the threaded insert is brass, the main body of the fitting is CPVC, ensuring the part of the fitting in contact with the water is resistant to corrosion and chemicals.

• Secure and Leak-Proof Connection: The combination of a strong solvent-weld bond and a robust brass-threaded connection ensures a reliable, long-lasting, and leak-proof joint.
