Dura Plastic PVC8045L1 Sch 80 Socket 45 Degree Elbow 1 in

Product Description

The DURA PLASTIC PVC8045L1 is a 1-inch Schedule 80 PVC socket elbow fitting designed to change flow direction by 45 degrees in pressure piping systems. The socket-by-socket (S x S) end connections accept solvent-weld joints on both ends, producing a permanent, leak-resistant connection. Schedule 80 wall thickness gives this fitting higher pressure ratings and greater impact resistance than Schedule 40, making it suitable for demanding industrial, commercial, and process piping applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a moderate directional change is needed without the sharper turn of a 90-degree elbow.

This elbow is used in residential and commercial plumbing, industrial process lines, irrigation systems, and chemical-handling installations where PVC material is appropriate. The 45-degree angle reduces turbulence and pressure drop compared to a 90-degree turn, making it a common choice in pump discharge lines, recirculation loops, and pool and spa plumbing. Both socket ends accept 1-inch nominal PVC pipe for solvent-cement assembly per standard practice.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for elevated pressure service compared to Schedule 40
• Socket x Socket (S x S) ends for solvent-weld connections on both sides
• 45-degree turn reduces flow turbulence and pressure loss versus a 90-degree elbow
• PVC construction resists corrosion, chemicals, and moisture
• 1-inch nominal pipe size fits standard 1-inch PVC pipe

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using 1-inch nominal pipe with solvent-weld socket connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters following applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local authority-having-jurisdiction requirements. Before cutting into an existing line, isolate and depressurize the piping system completely. Use a PVC-rated primer and solvent cement rated for Schedule 80 fittings, and allow full cure time before pressurizing the joint. Do not apply heat to accelerate cure and do not use this fitting for applications involving compressed air or gas unless the system is specifically rated and approved for that service.
