ELBOW 45°

Description

A CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) elbow 45-degree fitting is used in plumbing systems to change the direction of the flow of water or other fluids by 45 degrees. Here are the common uses and benefits of a CPVC elbow 45-degree fitting:

Uses

1. Smooth Direction Change: Used to redirect the piping system at a 45-degree angle, which provides a more gradual change in direction compared to a 90-degree elbow. This can be beneficial for reducing the impact of fluid flow changes and minimizing pressure loss.
2. Navigating Obstacles: Helps navigate around obstacles or design constraints where a 90-degree turn is too sharp and a gradual turn is required.
3. Improving Flow Dynamics: By creating smoother transitions in the piping system, it can improve flow dynamics, reduce turbulence, and decrease the risk of water hammer.
4. Connecting Pipes: Facilitates the connection of two CPVC pipes at an angle, ensuring a continuous and smooth flow of fluids.
5. Plumbing Systems: Commonly used in hot and cold water distribution systems due to CPVC’s ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures.
