Elbows are a commonly used type of piping fitting in plumbing installations, designed for connecting at pipe bends to alter the direction of the pipeline.

Other Names: 90° Elbow, Right-Angle Bend, Love Bend, Stamped Elbow, Forged Elbow, Machined Elbow, Welded Elbow, etc.

Application: Connects two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters, allowing the pipeline to make 90°, 45°, 180°, and various degree turns.

Bends with a radius less than or equal to 1.5 times the pipe diameter are known as elbows, while those with a radius greater than 1.5 times the pipe diameter are classified as bends.
