Elbow 45 degrees PVC-U designed for industrial piping systems, ensuring smooth directional routing and optimal hydraulic flow. Manufactured by Georg Fischer from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U) in standard grey RAL 7011, this metric pressure fitting provides dependable performance in demanding process environments. Engineered with metric solvent cement sockets, it facilitates reliable jointing for high-integrity chemical handling, water treatment, and industrial fluid distribution.

The fitting exhibits high resistance to acids, alkalis, salts, and corrosive process media, preventing internal scaling and preserving cross-sectional flow over extended operational lifetimes. Designed for nominal pressure ratings up to PN16 at an operating temperature of 20°C, the component complies with international industrial standards for thermoplastic pressure piping. Thermal performance encompasses continuous operation across typical ambient and media ranges, subject to standard thermoplastic pressure de-rating at elevated operating temperatures up to 60°C.

Jointing is executed via solvent cement socket fusion utilizing compatible PVC-U adhesives such as Tangit, achieving homogeneous, leak-tight connections capable of withstanding system vibrations and dynamic pressure surges. The 45-degree configuration significantly reduces local turbulence, pressure drop, and friction loss compared to sharper transitions, optimizing pump efficiency throughout the piping installation. BigWeld supplies this product as an authorised Georg Fischer distributor across Europe, supporting system designers, mechanical contractors, and industrial installers with comprehensive technical documentation and dimensioning support.
