180-degree elbow

In piping systems, elbows are pipe fittings used to change the direction of the pipeline. They are commonly available in 45°, 90°, and 180° angles. Additionally, elbows in other non-standard angles, such as 60°, are also available based on engineering requirements. Materials for elbows include cast iron, stainless steel, alloy steel, malleable cast iron, carbon steel, non-ferrous metals, and plastics.

Ways to connect pipes include direct welding (common method), flange connection, hot melt connection, electric melt connection, threaded connection, and socket welding connection, etc. They can be categorized by production process into: welded elbows, stamped elbows, expanded elbows, cast elbows, and socket weld elbows, etc. Other names: 90-degree elbows, right-angle elbows, etc.
