Boshart PVCME PVC MPT x Insert Elbow Fitting

Boshart PVCME PVC MPT x Insert Elbow Fitting

The Boshart PVCME is a PVC MPT x Insert elbow fitting built for rough-in plumbing runs where a threaded male connection needs to transition to insert-style PVC tubing. Manufactured in Canada, this elbow is part of Boshart's broad PVC fitting line and is available in sizes ranging from 1/2" through 1", covering the range of trade sizes most commonly specified for residential and light commercial rough-in work. It is suitable for a wide range of plumbing applications, including installations with ultraviolet exposure, and ships in a standard pack quantity of 10 each per size, making it a practical choice for contractors stocking rough-in supply for multiple jobs and jobsites.

Key Features

• Trade Size Range: Available in 1/2", 3/4", 1", and 1-1/2" sizes, giving contractors and distributors a single fitting family to cover most common rough-in supply and distribution runs.
• Connection Type: MPT (male pipe thread) x Insert configuration allows the fitting to join threaded pipe or fixtures on one end to insert-style PVC tubing on the other, simplifying transitions in below-slab and behind-the-wall plumbing runs.
• Durable Construction: Molded from PVC, a lightweight, corrosion-resistant thermoplastic material that resists the chemical breakdown common with metallic fittings in wet or buried plumbing environments.
• UV-Resistant Formulation: Suitable for applications involving ultraviolet exposure, giving installers flexibility to use the same fitting in both concealed and partially exposed plumbing runs without swapping fitting types.
• 90° Elbow Configuration: The elbow shape allows a directional change in the pipe run, reducing the need for additional couplings or field-cut angles when routing supply or distribution lines.
• Contractor Pack Quantity: Supplied 10 each per package across all available sizes, sized for rough-in crews and distributors who need consistent stock levels for repeat installations across multiple jobsites.
• Made in Canada: Manufactured to Boshart's production standards across the full size range, giving plumbing contractors and supply houses a consistent, traceable source for PVC transition fittings.
