45 Degree Elbow
45 Degree Elbow
The stainless steel 45 Degree Elbow is designed to redirect flow in industrial piping systems with a smooth, angled transition. Contractors use this fitting to change pipe direction by 45 degrees while maintaining system integrity and minimizing pressure loss. Ideal for tight spaces or complex layouts, it connects seamlessly to other AP Stainless press fittings for fast, flameless installation. Made from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel, itโs suitable for use in water, steam, air, and chemical systems. Simply press into place using compatible tools to achieve a secure, leak-free connection that withstands demanding industrial environments.
