Brass Elbow:

The ‘Brass Elbow’ is a most common part of ‘Piping’ system that is attached to two pipes as a support only when a diversion or change of direction of the pipe is required. The Elbows are connected by, butt-welding or it is threaded or Socketed. If the size of both ends of an Elbow differs it is known as ‘Reducer’ or ‘Reducing’ Elbow.

The Some Of the Various Types of ‘Elbows’ depending on its bending angle are:

(i.)90-degree Elbow
(ii.)45-degree Elbow
(iii.)22.5-degree Elbow

The ‘90-degree Elbow’ with its internal threads can be easily fixed with steel, Plastic, Copper pipes, and it can also be attached to rubber pipes with steel clamp fixtures. And the 45-degree is generally used in agricultural fields, solar-energy piping system, and air-conditioning water supply.

The Elbows are generally categorized by its length, such as the radius of curvature of a long-radius (L-R) Elbow is 1.5 times more the pipe diameter, whereas the short-radius (S-R) Elbow has a radius almost equal to the pipe diameter.

The Features of the Brass Elbows:

1. Rust proof.
2. No material leakage.
3. Reusable.
4. Easy to fix and dismantle.
5. Can withstand higher pressures and temperatures.
