Z-flex 2re90xx05 Stainless Steel 90 Degree Venting Elbow 5 in

Product Description

The Z-FLEX 2re90xx05 is a stainless steel 90-degree venting elbow designed for use in flue gas exhaust and venting systems. Built in a 4-piece configuration at a 5-inch diameter, this elbow provides a sharp directional change in vent runs where straight pipe cannot be routed. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion from condensate and combustion byproducts, making it appropriate for both direct-vent and Category III or IV appliance applications. Licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal installers are the primary trades who handle this type of fitting during new installs and service replacements.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial venting installations where a 90-degree directional change is required in a 5-inch vent run. Typical applications include gas furnace flue connections, water heater venting, and boiler exhaust routing. The 4-piece design allows for field adjustment of the elbow angle to align with existing vent infrastructure during installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified installer in accordance with local mechanical codes and the appliance manufacturer's venting instructions. Shut off the gas supply and allow the appliance to cool completely before disconnecting or modifying any vent sections. Ensure all joints are properly sealed and supported according to applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Do not reduce vent diameter or exceed the maximum elbow count specified in the appliance installation manual.
