Atlas PVC Elbow, 160mm 45°, Large-Bore Bend for High-Flow PVC Systems

The 160MM refers to the pipe diameter it’s designed to fit, and 45Deg indicates the bend angle of the elbow. So it’s a 160 millimeter PVC elbow with a 45-degree bend.

It’s made from high-quality PVC, designed for durability, ease of installation, and long-term use in standard plumbing applications.

This elbow is intended for 160mm PVC pipes. Ensure your pipe dimensions and schedules match the elbow’s compatibility, and use the appropriate PVC cement and primers when joining.

Steps: 1) Cut and deburr the pipe ends cleanly. 2) Dry-fit to verify alignment. 3) Apply PVC primer to the pipe ends and the inside of the elbow. 4) Apply PVC cement and quickly insert the pipe ends fully into the elbow. 5) Hold a few seconds to allow bonding. 6) Allow the joint to cure per the adhesive manufacturer’s instructions.

Yes, PVC elbows are commonly used in drainage and fixture piping. Just confirm that the 160mm size and 45-degree angle fit your specific layout and that the overall system is designed for the application.

PVC fittings are used in many potable water systems, but suitability depends on the grade and certification of the pipe and fitting. Check local codes and confirm that the specific Atlas elbow is rated for potable use before installing in drinking-water lines.

Tips: (1) Clean and deburr pipe ends. (2) Use fresh primer and cement designed for PVC. (3) Apply a uniform coat of cement and insert fully with a twist to spread the adhesive. (4) Hold the joint briefly to prevent push-out and let it cure according to the adhesive instructions.

Per Pcs means the item is sold individually. If you need multiple elbows, you’ll add one piece at a time to your cart to reach the desired quantity.

Place elbows where the pipe path requires a directional change and space allows for proper alignment. Avoid sharp, unsupported angles and maintain appropriate slope for drainage runs to prevent buildup and ensure smooth flow.

Choose a 45-degree elbow when you need a gradual turn to navigate around obstacles or compress tight spaces, reducing column separation and potential blockages. Choose a 90-degree elbow for sharper direction changes where space is more open and a steeper turn is required.
