Product Details
The Merit 316 SS Schedule 40 Long Radius 90 Degree Elbow 2-1/2 Butt-Weld Female is designed for butt welding, the preferred method for joining pipe connections, requiring the fitting to have the same wall thickness and diameter as the pipe. Both pipe and fitting ends are beveled to butt together, forming a groove to hold the weld filler. This fitting is made from 316 stainless steel and complies with Schedule 40 specifications, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance. The long radius design facilitates smooth flow and reduces pressure loss. The 2-1/2 inch size and female butt-weld connection provide compatibility with corresponding pipes. Installing this elbow offers advantages such as lower cost, less maintenance, and greater strength compared to threaded joints. The product comes with a standard warranty covering manufacturing defects.
