Finolex PVC Pushfit Elbow 45°, 1 to 8 inch

An elbow 45° is a type of pipe fitting used in plumbing and piping systems to change the direction of flow by 45 degrees. It typically consists of a curved piece of pipe with a 45-degree bend, allowing for a smooth transition from one direction to another. Elbow 45° fittings are commonly used when pipes need to navigate around obstacles or change direction without sharp turns, which can lead to pressure loss or increased turbulence in the fluid flow. They come in various materials such as metal, plastic, or PVC, and can be threaded, welded, or glued onto the pipe system depending on the specific requirements of the application. Elbow 45° fittings are widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing and piping systems for water distribution
