Bd Manufacturing SPE66 90 Degree Elbow 1-1/4 in Socket Fusion SDR11

Product Description

The BD MANUFACTURING SPE66 is a straight 90-degree elbow fitting designed for use in pressurized piping systems. Built to SDR11 schedule, it accepts 1-1/4 inch pipe on both ends via socket fusion connections, making it suitable for polyethylene and similar thermoplastic piping applications. This fitting changes flow direction by 90 degrees without reducing pipe size, maintaining consistent flow characteristics through the run. Licensed plumbers and piping contractors typically specify SDR11 socket fusion fittings for hydronic, geothermal, and underground service lines where a reliable, leak-free joint is required.

This elbow is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping installations where SDR11-rated thermoplastic pipe is specified. Socket fusion connections require a fusion tool to heat both the fitting socket and the pipe end before joining, producing a homogeneous bond. The equal 1-1/4 inch by 1-1/4 inch sizing makes this a full-size, non-reducing 90-degree turn, commonly used at directional changes in supply or return lines, manifold runs, and buried or exposed service piping where a rigid, pressure-rated elbow is needed.

Key Features

• 90-degree straight elbow provides a full right-angle direction change with no flow reduction
• SDR11 schedule rating supports pressure-rated service in thermoplastic piping systems
• Socket fusion end connections on both sides produce a permanent, fused joint
• Equal sizing on both ends: 1-1/4 inch inlet and 1-1/4 inch outlet
• Compatible with standard socket fusion tooling used by plumbing and mechanical contractors

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for SDR11-rated thermoplastic piping systems using 1-1/4 inch socket fusion connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified piping contractor familiar with socket fusion procedures. Depressurize and drain the piping system completely before cutting into any existing line. Use a properly sized and calibrated socket fusion tool to heat both the pipe end and the fitting socket to the manufacturer-recommended fusion temperature before joining. Follow applicable plumbing code requirements, including IPC provisions for thermoplastic pressure piping, when installing in potable water or hydronic systems.
