45 Degree Bend

PVC Pressure 45° Bend (Cat 10)

Description:
The PVC Pressure 45° Bend (Cat 10) is designed to change the direction of a pressure pipeline by 45 degrees. This FF (female–female) fitting allows the pipe to be securely inserted into both ends and fixed using solvent cement for a watertight, long-lasting joint.

Constructed from high-quality PVC-U (unplasticised polyvinyl chloride), this fitting provides excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and impact, making it a reliable choice for a wide range of pressure applications.

Key Features:

• 45° bend for smooth directional changes in pipelines
• FF fitting – pipe fits inside both ends
• High-strength PVC-U for durability and longevity
• Corrosion, chemical, and UV resistant
• Compatible with PVC pressure pipes PN4.5 – PN18
• White or off-white finish
• Wide range of sizes from 12mm to 150mm

Applications:

• Potable water supply
• Pumped sewerage and effluent pipelines
• Irrigation and turf watering systems
• Slurry and recycled water transport
• Pressure sewerage systems
• Gas distribution (with special yellow pipe)
