Ashirvad Flowguard Plus CPVC 45? Elbow

Ashirvad Flowguard Plus CPVC 45? Elbow provides gentle directional changes in plumbing layouts, offering superior flow characteristics compared to 90-degree fittings. The 45-degree angle creates smoother water flow with less turbulence and reduced pressure drop, making it ideal for applications where maintaining optimal flow rates is critical. This fitting is particularly useful in tight spaces where gradual direction changes are needed or when routing pipes around obstacles.
Manufactured from premium CPVC compound with FlowGuard Gold technology, this elbow delivers exceptional durability in both hot and cold water systems. The precision-molded design ensures consistent wall thickness and reliable solvent cement bonding. Perfect for creating offset connections, navigating around structural elements, or optimizing pipe routing in complex installations.

Recommended Applications

Offset Connections: Creating parallel pipe runs with gentle offsets around obstacles

Drainage Slopes: Achieving proper drainage angles in horizontal pipe runs

Space-Efficient Routing: Navigating tight spaces where 90? bends would be impractical

Flow Optimization: Reducing pressure drop in long pipe runs requiring direction changes

Pump Discharge Lines: Smooth transitions from vertical to horizontal runs

Multi-Story Installations: Gradual direction changes in riser systems

Installation Guidelines

Pipe Preparation: Cut pipes squarely; deburr and chamfer pipe ends at 10-15? angle

Angle Verification: Ensure 45? elbow orientation matches your layout requirements before cementing

Surface Cleaning: Clean pipe ends and elbow sockets with CPVC cleaner

Solvent Cementing: Apply Ashirvad CPVC solvent cement; insert pipes with quarter turn and hold for 30 seconds

Alignment Check: Verify proper angle alignment before cement sets; adjust within first 15 seconds if needed
