Value Collection 16636 Cpvc 90 Elbow 1 Inch Fipt X Fipt 5-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 16636 is a 1-inch CPVC 90-degree elbow fitting with female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on both ends. This fitting is used to change flow direction by 90 degrees in chlorinated polyvinyl chloride piping systems. CPVC material handles higher temperature hot water lines where standard PVC is not rated. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial water distribution systems. Each package contains 5 elbows, making it practical for jobs requiring multiple directional changes in a single run.

This elbow is suited for hot and cold potable water supply lines, as well as industrial fluid handling applications that require CPVC chemical resistance. The FIPT x FIPT end connections allow direct threading onto male-threaded pipe or fittings. It is commonly installed in residential plumbing retrofits and new construction where CPVC pipe is the specified material. The 1-inch size is a standard nominal pipe size used throughout residential main supply lines and branch runs.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow geometry for right-angle directional changes in piping runs
• FIPT x FIPT end connections thread directly onto male pipe or male-threaded fittings
• CPVC construction supports higher temperature service compared to standard PVC
• 1-inch nominal size fits standard schedule 40 and schedule 80 CPVC pipe threads
• Sold in a pack of 5 for efficient stocking on multi-connection jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 1-inch CPVC threaded piping systems with FIPT end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before making any connections. Apply CPVC-rated thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before engagement — do not use petroleum-based pipe dopes incompatible with CPVC. Hand-tighten first, then apply a limited additional turn with a strap wrench to avoid over-torquing and cracking the fitting.
