Description
20mm MDPE 90° Elbow – Compression
This 20mm MDPE 90° Elbow is used to change the direction of 20mm MDPE blue or black water pipe by 90 degrees. Both ends use compression joints with internal stainless steel grip rings and rubber EPDM O-ring seals. No inserts needed – cut the pipe square, chamfer the edge, push each pipe into the fitting until it hits the stop, then tighten the nut hand-tight plus 1 turn with a spanner. The grip rings lock the pipe in place and the O-rings create watertight seals rated to 16 bar. Used for navigating corners, obstacles, and layout changes on mains supplies, garden systems, irrigation lines, and outbuilding feeds. Suitable for use with MDPE pipe to BS 6572 and BS EN 12201. WRAS approved for use with potable drinking water. UV stabilised polypropylene body resists frost and ground conditions. Not suitable for gas or hot water above 20°C. Reusable if undamaged – loosen the nuts and pull the pipes out. Full-bore design maintains good flow characteristics with minimal pressure drop.
