Tigre Usa Inc 1407-010 Poly Insert Fpt Elbow 1 Inch

Product Description

The TIGRE USA INC 1407-010 is a 1-inch polyethylene insert elbow fitting with a female pipe thread (FPT) outlet, designed for use in cold water distribution systems. It connects to PE polyethylene pipe using stainless steel clamps on the insert end, with a threaded female connection on the opposite end. This fitting is rated for potable water service under NSF 14 and NSF 16 and meets ASTM D-2609 standards. It is installed by licensed plumbers in residential and light commercial irrigation, agricultural, and rural water supply applications where polyethylene pipe is the primary distribution material.

This elbow is suited for cold water service lines where a direction change from a polyethylene main is required. The insert-by-FPT configuration allows a direct threaded connection to valves, risers, or other threaded components. It is not approved for use inside dwellings, with compressed air, or with gas service. Sold in packages of 15 units, making it a practical stocking item for contractors running multiple service connections.
