Spears Schedule 40 PVC 90° Elbow, Socket x FPT
The Spears Schedule 40 PVC 90° Elbow, Socket x FPT, is a PVC pipe fitting built for Schedule 40 PVC piping systems used in plumbing, irrigation, and light industrial applications. This fitting changes direction by 90° while transitioning from a socket (SOC) connection on one end to a female pipe thread (FPT) connection on the other, allowing Schedule 40 PVC pipe to be joined directly to threaded fittings, valves, or equipment. Molded in durable PVC, this elbow resists corrosion and chemical attack, making it a dependable choice for pressure-rated PVC piping runs where a solvent-welded socket joint on one side and a threaded connection on the other are both required.
Key Features
- 90° Elbow Configuration: Changes pipe direction by a full 90° within a Schedule 40 PVC piping run.
- Socket x FPT Connection: Solvent-weld socket (SOC) on one end and female pipe thread (FPT) on the other for joining pipe to threaded components.
- Schedule 40 PVC Construction: Molded from rigid PVC to Schedule 40 wall thickness for consistent strength and pressure handling.
- Corrosion-Resistant Material: PVC construction resists rust, corrosion, and chemical degradation common to metallic fittings.
- Lightweight, Easy-Handling Design: PVC construction simplifies handling and installation compared to metal fittings of similar function.
- Reliable Transition Fitting: Provides a secure, leak-resistant transition between socket-fit pipe and threaded fixtures or valves.
