Topaz Lighting 1042 Schedule 40 PVC Special Radius Elbow

The Topaz Lighting Schedule 40 PVC Special Radius Elbow is engineered to enable smooth, reliable connections between straight runs of PVC conduit while accommodating design changes in your raceway system. This family of special radius elbows is available in trade sizes ranging from 1/2" through 5" and in 30°, 45°, and 90° angle configurations, giving contractors and engineers the flexibility to match nearly any layout requirement. Each elbow is manufactured from rugged, noncorrosive, and nonconductive Schedule 40 PVC with clean plain spigot ends on both sides, delivering a secure, code-compliant solvent-cement connection to standard Schedule 40 PVC conduit and fittings, and is cULus Approved for above-ground and below-ground installations.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: Available in 1/2" through 5" trade sizes to fit a wide range of conduit runs.
  • Angle Options: Offered in 30°, 45°, and 90° special radius configurations for generous sweep and low-friction wire pulling.
  • Durable Construction: Manufactured from Schedule 40 PVC — rugged, noncorrosive, and nonconductive — for long-lasting performance without rust or galvanic corrosion.
  • Plain Spigot Ends: Clean plain spigot ends on both sides for easy solvent-cement joining to standard Schedule 40 PVC conduit and fittings.
  • Above & Below Ground Suitability: Rated for both above-ground and below-ground conduit installations across commercial, industrial, and utility applications.
  • Nonconductive Material: PVC construction provides inherent electrical nonconductivity, eliminating the need for bonding or grounding of the fitting itself.

Topaz Lighting 1042 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What trade sizes and bend angles do Topaz 1042 special radius PVC elbows come in?
Trade sizes run 1/2 inch through 5 inch, in 30, 45 and 90 degree bends. Examples of orderable combinations: 1/2 inch 90 degree is part 104180, 3/4 inch 90 degree is 1042, 2-1/2 inch 90 degree is 1047, 1 inch 45 degree is 1053, 4 inch 45 degree is 1060, 5 inch 45 degree is 1060A, and 1-1/2 inch 30 degree is 1265. Specify both the size and the angle when you order.
2) Can I bury these PVC elbows in a duct bank, or are they above ground only?
Both. The Schedule 40 PVC construction is rated for above-ground and below-ground conduit installations, which is why they show up in duct banks and underground utility runs as well as exposed commercial raceway.
3) Why use a special radius elbow instead of a standard PVC sweep?
The special radius gives a longer, more generous bend than a standard elbow of the same trade size. That means less sidewall pressure and lower friction when you are pulling large conductors or long pulls, and it eats up more linear space in the trench or ceiling. If you are short on room and the pull is light, a standard radius fitting is the easier fit; for feeder-size cable and fiber, the bigger sweep is what you want.
4) Do I need to bond or ground a PVC conduit elbow?
No. PVC is nonconductive, so the fitting itself needs no bonding or grounding. Your equipment grounding conductor still has to be run inside the raceway per code, since the conduit cannot serve as the ground path the way metallic conduit can.
5) Will PVC conduit elbows hold up in a corrosive or wet environment where steel conduit rusts?
That is the usual reason to spec them. PVC is noncorrosive, so there is no rust and no galvanic corrosion at the joint, which makes it the common choice for water treatment, coastal, chemical and direct-burial locations where rigid steel or EMT would not last.
6) Which angle should I order for a gradual grade change in an underground run?
For a shallow grade change, the 30 degree is the flattest of the three, available for example in 1-1/2 inch as part 1265. The 45 degree handles a steeper offset or a diagonal jog, and the 90 degree is for a stub-up out of the trench or a turn at a wall. All three are offered as special radius, so the sweep stays wide whichever angle you pick.
7) Are these PVC elbows sold individually or by the case?
The pack unit is 100. Plan quantities in full packs when you are ordering for a rough-in or a duct bank.
