Camco Mfg 39144 Easy Slip Elbow 4-in-1 Tapered Adapter

Product Description

The CAMCO MFG 39144 is a dryer vent elbow fitting with an integrated 4-in-1 tapered adapter, designed to simplify connections between flexible vent hoses and rigid or semi-rigid duct transitions. The slip elbow accepts all standard 3-inch dryer exhaust hoses and slipcover-style fittings. The tapered adapter provides four thread-size options, fitting 3-inch slip connections or 3-inch, 3-1/2-inch, and 4-inch threaded pipe. This part is installed by HVAC technicians, appliance installers, and experienced DIYers during dryer installations or vent system retrofits where hose-to-pipe transitions are required.

The 39144 is suited for residential laundry installations where the dryer exhaust hose must connect to a wall or floor duct outlet. Its multi-size adapter eliminates the need for additional bushings or reducers when the outlet pipe diameter varies between 3 and 4 inches. Sold in a package quantity of two, this fitting is useful for service calls involving mismatched vent terminations or replacement of damaged elbow connectors. It is appropriate for standard residential dryer venting applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians or appliance installers following local mechanical codes for dryer exhaust venting. Before servicing the vent connection, disconnect the dryer from its power source and, for gas dryers, ensure the gas supply is shut off at the shutoff valve. Do not overtighten threaded connections on the tapered adapter, as this can crack the fitting. Verify that the completed vent path meets local code requirements for length, number of elbows, and termination clearance.
