What is an elbow? Introduction to carbon steel elbow fittings
2025-03-14
What is an elbow? Carbon steel elbow pipe fittings are used at the pipe elbow to connect two pipes with the same nominal diameter, allowing the pipe to turn. Elbows are classified by type into 90° elbows, right-angle elbows, S-shaped elbows, stamped elbows, pressed elbows, machined elbows, welded elbows, etc. By material, they are classified into carbon steel elbows, cast steel elbows, alloy steel elbows, stainless steel elbows, copper elbows, aluminum alloy elbows, etc. Elbows can be said to be used in all walks of life across the country, from small families to large enterprises. Each carbon steel elbow has its own advantages and uses. Carbon steel elbows are commonly used connecting pipe fittings in pipe installation, used for connections at pipe elbows. Carbon steel elbows have gained market favor and continue to replace some traditional wear-resistant materials. The fundamental reason lies in their superior product quality and compatibility with traditional wear-resistant materials. The development and application of these steels are developing rapidly. Because these steels have good wear resistance and toughness, the production process is relatively simple, and the overall economy is reasonable. They are suitable for a variety of working conditions and are popular with users. This has also made the application of thick-walled wear-resistant elbows more widespread and the cost lower and lower.
Uses of 90-degree elbows: Connecting two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters, allowing the pipe to turn 90°, 45°, 180°, and various angles.
A bend with a bend radius less than or equal to 1.5 times the pipe diameter is considered an elbow; a bend with a bend radius greater than 1.5 times the pipe diameter is considered a bend.
