Lesso UV406-005 Sch 40 Pvc 90 Elbow Uv 1/2 in Sxs

Product Description

The LESSO UV406-005 is a 1/2 inch Schedule 40 PVC 90-degree elbow fitting with UV-resistant compound, designed for solvent-weld socket (SxS) connections. This elbow is used to change pipe direction in low-pressure plumbing, irrigation, and fluid-handling systems where exposure to sunlight is a concern. Standard Schedule 40 wall thickness provides solid pressure ratings suited to residential and light commercial applications. Plumbers and irrigation contractors install this fitting as a direct solvent-weld connection requiring no threads or mechanical fasteners. At 0.04 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during rough-in work.

This fitting is suited for above-grade and outdoor installations where UV degradation of standard PVC is a known issue. Typical applications include residential irrigation laterals, outdoor water distribution lines, exposed above-ground plumbing runs, and pool or spa equipment plumbing where sunlight exposure is routine. The UV-resistant formulation helps extend service life in direct-sun environments compared to standard clear or gray PVC fittings.

Key Features

• UV-resistant PVC compound rated for outdoor and above-grade sun exposure
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard low-pressure residential and commercial plumbing
• 1/2 inch socket-by-socket (SxS) solvent-weld ends for clean, leak-resistant joints
• 90-degree turn geometry for tight directional changes in pipe runs
• Lightweight at 0.04 pounds for easy handling in volume irrigation or plumbing work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting compatible with 1/2 inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe systems using solvent-weld socket connections.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or irrigation professionals using PVC primer and solvent cement per ASTM D2564 and applicable local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Allow full cure time for the solvent weld joint before pressurizing the system. Do not use this fitting for applications requiring threaded connections or compression fittings without an appropriate transition adapter.
