2 inch PVC Schedule 40 90 Degree Elbow Plastic x Plastic

2 inch PVC Schedule 40 90° Elbow – Slip x Slip for Gravity Flow Applications

The 2 inch Schedule 40 PVC 90-Degree Elbow is a solvent-welded fitting designed for directional changes in non-pressurized plumbing systems. Manufactured to ASTM D2466 and D1784 standards, this fitting provides reliable performance in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems, as well as in irrigation and certain industrial applications.

Molded from high-quality Type 1 Grade 1 PVC compound, this elbow features slip-style hubs on both ends, allowing for solvent welding to matching Schedule 40 pipe. It supports consistent system alignment and smooth internal transitions to maintain flow characteristics around bends.

Product Benefits for Jobsite Efficiency

• ✅ Schedule 40 Rated: Suitable for non-pressure and low-pressure systems up to 140°F (60°C).
• ✅ Slip Hub Connections: Engineered for solvent cement joints with proper interference fit.
• ✅ Precision Molded: Maintains dimensional accuracy to ensure leak-resistant installations and reduced rework.
• ✅ Non-Conductive Material: Offers insulation properties and corrosion resistance in chemical-free environments.
• ✅ UV-Resistant: Acceptable for above-ground outdoor use when properly painted or protected.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidance

Proper installation requires pipe end cleaning and priming per ASTM standards, followed by solvent cement application to both socket and pipe. Ensure full pipe insertion and hold until initial set occurs. Cure time is dependent on temperature, pipe size, and ambient humidity. Do not pressurize system until full cure has been achieved as per the cement manufacturer's instructions.

Application Areas

This 90° elbow is commonly installed in:

• Drainage and vent piping in residential and commercial buildings
• Irrigation distribution lines and valve manifolds
• Low-pressure, open-loop industrial fluid handling systems

Code Note

Schedule 40 PVC is recognized by most plumbing codes for DWV and non-pressure systems. For pressurized potable water systems, use CPVC or Schedule 80 components where required by local jurisdiction.
