Description

Soften the Turn. Improve Flow Efficiency.

The Schedule 40 PVC 45° Elbow (SxS) is designed to change the direction of your piping system more gradually than a standard 90-degree bend. Featuring Slip (Socket) connections on both ends, this fitting slides over standard PVC pipe and bonds permanently using PVC solvent cement, creating a smooth, leak-proof joint.

By utilizing a 45-degree angle, you reduce friction loss and water turbulence within the line, maintaining higher pressure and flow rates for your irrigation system. This fitting is essential for navigating around obstacles or creating offsets in your main water supply lines.

Why Choose Dura Schedule 40 PVC?

Efficient Flow: The gentler 45-degree angle creates less resistance than a sharp 90-degree turn, helping to maintain system pressure over long distances.
Permanent Bond: The deep slip sockets provide ample surface area for solvent welding, ensuring a joint that is as strong as the pipe itself.
Professional Quality: Injection-molded from virgin PVC resin, meeting ASTM D-2466 standards for dimensional consistency and burst pressure.
Durability: Highly resistant to corrosion, chemical fertilizers, and weathering, making it suitable for both buried and above-ground applications.
NSF Certified: Safe for use with potable (drinking) water.

How to Install: A Step-by-Step Guide

Proper solvent welding ensures a leak-free system.

Step 1: Cut and Clean
Cut your PVC pipe squarely and remove any burrs. Wipe the pipe end and the inside of the fitting socket with a clean cloth.

Step 2: Prime
Apply PVC Primer to the outside of the pipe and the inside of the fitting socket. This softens the PVC for a better bond.

Step 3: Glue
While the primer is still wet, apply a coat of PVC Cement (Glue) to both surfaces.

Step 4: Assemble
Immediately push the pipe into the fitting while twisting a quarter turn to spread the glue evenly. Hold firmly for 30 seconds to prevent push-out.

✔ Compatibility Check

Check your pipe type:

Both Ends: Feature Slip / Socket connections.
Fits: Standard Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 PVC Pipe (same nominal size).
It will NOT screw onto threaded pipes or nipples.
It requires PVC Primer and Glue for installation.
