Value Collection 1406-020 Barbed Tube Insert Elbow 2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1406-020 is a male barbed tube insert elbow fitting designed to create a 90-degree directional change in tubing runs. Molded from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), this insert elbow accepts 2-inch barbed connections and is installed by pressing the barbed end into compatible flexible tubing for a secure, non-slip grip. The male configuration allows it to thread or insert directly into a receiving fitting or port. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and fluid-system installers use this type of fitting in low-pressure liquid transfer applications where a reliable directional connection is needed.

This insert elbow is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and general fluid-transfer systems that use flexible tubing with a 2-inch inner diameter. It is typically installed in above-ground or below-ground irrigation laterals, pool and spa plumbing, and low-pressure water distribution lines where a barbed elbow connection is the specified fitting type.

Key Features

• 2-inch barb size provides a firm grip on compatible flexible tubing without clamps in many low-pressure applications
• Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) construction offers resistance to corrosion and common water treatment chemicals
• Male fitting configuration for direct insertion into receiving ports or female fittings
• 90-degree elbow geometry allows directional changes in tight plumbing runs
• Lightweight at 0.36 pounds, reducing load on tubing assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for flexible tubing systems with a 2-inch inner diameter barbed connection in irrigation, plumbing, and fluid-transfer applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or irrigation technicians. Shut off water supply and depressurize the line before installing or removing any fitting. The barbed end should be inserted fully into the tubing; hose clamps are recommended for pressurized applications to prevent blowout. Follow applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements for fitting material and pressure ratings in potable and non-potable systems.
