PVC pressure side outlet plain elbows are PVC-U fittings with three solvent-weld sockets used to join three lengths of matching PVC pressure pipe at a corner. Two sockets form a 90° elbow, while the side outlet provides a third connection at right angles to the other pipe connections.
Each socket fits over PVC pressure pipe of the same nominal size and is joined using PVC priming fluid and pressure-rated solvent cement. PVC pressure pipe sizes are nominal, so the stated size is different from the measured pipe outside diameter. This joining method is known as a solvent weld joint, or SWJ.
These fittings are suited to residential, commercial and agricultural irrigation, garden and landscape watering, domestic and rural water supply, pump systems and other compatible PVC pressure pipework where a three-way corner connection is required.
