PE & PP Compression Fittings-90° Elbow

Key Features:
PE (Polyethylene): A widely used thermoplastic polymer that is resistant to chemicals, corrosion, and impact. It is commonly used in piping systems due to its durability, flexibility, and ease of installation.

PP (Polypropylene): Another thermoplastic polymer, often used for its higher temperature resistance and superior chemical resistance. It is particularly useful in systems where exposure to harsh chemicals or high temperatures is common.

Compression Fittings: These are fittings that connect two pipes using a compression mechanism. Compression fittings consist of several components, including the body, nut, and an O-ring or sealing element. When the nut is tightened onto the fitting body, it compresses the O-ring or seal to create a tight, leak-proof connection. These fittings do not require heat or welding to assemble, making them a popular choice for quick and reliable installations.

90° Elbow: This fitting is shaped like an "L" and is used to change the direction of the pipe by 90 degrees (either from horizontal to vertical or from one horizontal direction to another). It's a standard fitting in any piping system where a change in flow direction is required. The 90° angle allows for a sharp bend without compromising the integrity of the pipe.

Applications:
Water and Gas Supply: For both residential and commercial applications, these elbows are commonly used to change direction in water or gas pipelines.
Irrigation Systems: The 90° elbow fittings are often used in irrigation networks to direct water flow around obstacles or corners.
Wastewater and Drainage Systems: Compression elbows can be used in drainage systems where bends are needed to navigate around infrastructure.
Advantages:
Easy Installation: Compression fittings are simple to install and don’t require specialized tools or equipment.
Leak-Proof Connections: When installed correctly, compression fittings provide a secure, leak-free connection.
No Welding Required: Unlike other types of plastic fittings that require welding or heat fusion, compression fittings can be used without the need for external heat, making them more versatile and faster to install.
Durability: Both PE and PP are resistant to environmental stress, chemicals, and UV rays, which makes these fittings suitable for outdoor and underground use.
