Product Description

The CHARLOTTE PIPE 8163 is a Schedule 40 PVC 90-degree elbow rated for 150 psi service in pressurized liquid distribution systems. It features a spigot-by-socket end configuration, allowing one end to insert into a standard hub fitting while the other accepts a standard spigot. Nominal size is 1-1/2 inches. The fitting is manufactured domestically and finished in white PVC. It is suited for use in potable water distribution, irrigation, and general plumbing supply lines where a 90-degree directional change is required. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This elbow is rated for pressurized liquid service only and is not intended for gas, compressed air, or drainage-waste-vent applications. The SCH 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure-rated fitting dimensions for 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe. It is commonly installed in residential and light commercial water supply systems, hydronic distribution lines, and irrigation mainlines wherever a 90-degree turn is needed in a solvent-welded PVC piping system.
