3/4 inch PVC Schedule 40 90 Degree Elbow Plastic x Plastic

3/4 inch PVC 90° Elbow – Slip x Slip Fitting for DWV and Cold Water Applications

The 3/4 inch PVC 90° Elbow is a Schedule 40 solvent-weld fitting designed to create a right-angle directional change in piping systems. Featuring slip (socket) connections on both ends, this elbow is commonly used in cold water distribution, irrigation, and drain, waste, and vent (DWV) configurations where a rigid, corrosion-resistant transition is required.

Manufactured from durable polyvinyl chloride (PVC), this fitting is engineered to meet dimensional tolerances and performance standards for non-pressurized and low-pressure systems. It is suitable for above-ground and buried installations in residential and light commercial systems.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Schedule 40 PVC
• Size: 3/4 inch nominal pipe size
• Connection Type: Slip x Slip (Socket x Socket)
• Bend Angle: 90 degrees
• System Compatibility: Cold potable water, DWV, and non-pressurized fluid transport
• Standards: ASTM D2466, NSF 14, NSF 61

Key Features

• ✅ Corrosion-Resistant – Inert to most chemicals commonly found in potable and wastewater systems.
• ✅ Lightweight Construction – Reduces handling time and eases overhead and wall installations.
• ✅ Solvent-Weld Joints – Designed for permanent connections using PVC primer and cement.

Installation Guidelines

Install using approved PVC primer and solvent cement. Pipe ends must be clean, square-cut, and free of debris. Insert the pipe fully into the fitting socket and allow proper cure time per adhesive manufacturer guidelines before pressure testing. Installation should follow applicable plumbing or mechanical codes.

Common Applications

Used in branch connections, directional offsets, and compact turns in water supply lines, DWV stacks, and irrigation systems. Suitable for systems that operate under low pressure or gravity flow.

Code Compliance

This elbow is NSF-certified for potable water use and meets ASTM D2466 for Schedule 40 PVC fittings. Approved for use in plumbing systems governed by IPC, UPC, and local code requirements.

The 3/4 inch PVC 90° Elbow offers a code-compliant, low-maintenance solution for transitioning direction in piping layouts. Its solvent-weld configuration and corrosion resistance make it an essential component in cold water and drainage systems.
