What is Turk Plast upvc Elbow 6″ ?

 

Turk Plast designs a UPVC (Un plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) elbow with a 6-inch diameter and Schedule 40 rating to change the direction of a pipeline.
This elbow is typically used at a 90-degree angle, although other angles may be available. Let’s delve into a detailed overview of this product:

Type: Elbow fitting – used to change the direction of pipes, typically at a 90-degree angle.

Expected Dimensions (Industry Standards):

• Diameter of Inlet and Outlet Openings: Approximately 6 inches (152.4mm) – matches the outside diameter of a 6″?? pipe.
• Elbow Radius (Centerline to Centerline): This can vary depending on the elbow type. Here’s a breakdown for common elbow types:
  • 90-degree Elbow: Around 6 inches (152.4mm) – This is the distance between the centerlines of the inlet and outlet on either side of the elbow curve.

• Wall Thickness: Schedule 40 elbows typically have a wall thickness around 0.24 inches (6.1mm).

Connection:

• Designed for solvent welding. A special PVC cement is used to create a strong, watertight seal between the elbow and the pipes.

Applications:

• Commonly used in various plumbing and drainage applications, where a change in direction is needed:
  • Cold water supply lines (up to a certain pressure)
  • Drainage systems (waste vents, etc.)
  • Irrigation systems (depending on pressure rating)

• Installation Instructions

  1. Preparation:
     • Measure and cut the pipes to the required lengths using a fine-toothed saw or a pipe cutter.
     • Ensure that all cuts are straight and clean.
  2. Cleaning:
     • Clean the pipe ends and the inside of the elbow fitting with a clean cloth to remove any dust, grease, or other contaminants.
  3. Dry Fitting:
     • Temporarily assemble the pipes and the elbow without solvent cement to check for proper fit and alignment.
  4. Applying Solvent Cement:
     • Apply a thin, even layer of UPVC solvent cement to the outside of the pipe ends and the inside of the elbow fitting.
  5. Joining:
     • Quickly insert the pipes into the elbow with a slight twisting motion to ensure even distribution of the cement.
     • Hold the pipes in place for a few seconds until the cement sets.
  6. Curing:
     • Allow the joint to cure for the time recommended by the solvent cement manufacturer, typically 24 hours, before applying pressure or putting the system into use.
