Tigre Usa Inc 1407-012 Poly Insert Fpt Elbow 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The TIGRE USA INC 1407-012 is a 1-1/4 inch polyethylene insert elbow fitting with a female pipe thread (FPT) outlet, configured as insert x female. This fitting is designed for use with PE polyethylene pipe and is secured using stainless steel clamps over the barbed insert end. It is rated for cold water service only and carries NSF 14 and NSF 16 listings for potable water applications. Plumbers and irrigation installers use this fitting to change direction in low-pressure cold water supply lines. The fitting meets ASTM D-2609 standards, confirming dimensional and material compliance for polyethylene insert fittings.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial cold water distribution, irrigation systems, and rural water supply lines where PE pipe is the standard material. It is not approved for use with compressed air, gases, or hot water lines. It is also not intended for installation inside dwellings. Typical applications include outdoor water service laterals, well water supply runs, and agricultural water systems where polyethylene pipe is used with mechanical insert-style connections.
