1" Polypropylene Threaded 90° Pipe Elbow | 62217

Product Introduction

The 1" Polypropylene Threaded 90° Pipe Elbow (model 62217) from Barr Plastics is a durable, lightweight threaded elbow designed to change the direction of 1" piping systems. Made from chemical-resistant polypropylene and compatible with standard NPT connections, this 90° elbow delivers reliable performance in plumbing, irrigation, and chemical handling systems.

Features & Specifications

• Material: Polypropylene — corrosion- and chemical-resistant thermoplastic
• Size: 1" nominal, for use with 1" diameter pipe
• Connection: Threaded design compatible with standard NPT threads
• Angle: 90° elbow for quick directional changes
• Temperature: Moderate heat resistance suitable for many fluid systems (not for high-temperature service)
• Safety: Non-toxic material safe for potable water and some food-contact applications
• Weight: Lightweight — easier handling and lower shipping costs than metal fittings
• Installation: Simple assembly and disassembly with threaded connections

Benefits & Applications

This polypropylene threaded 90° elbow solves common piping challenges by providing a corrosion-resistant, easy-to-install directional fitting. Its chemical resistance prevents degradation in aggressive fluid systems, extending service life and reducing downtime. The lightweight design speeds installation and lowers transport costs versus metal alternatives. Typical applications include residential and commercial plumbing, irrigation systems, HVAC low-temperature setups, and chemical-processing lines where material compatibility is critical. Because it is non-toxic, it is also suitable for many potable water and food-processing uses.

Installation Tips

• Ensure threads and fittings are clean and free of debris before assembly.
• Apply thread sealant or PTFE (Teflon) tape to male threads for reliable sealing.
• Tighten with a wrench but avoid over-tightening to prevent cracking or thread damage.

Maintenance

Inspect threaded joints periodically for leaks or wear. In harsh chemical or UV-exposed environments, schedule routine checks and replace fittings as needed to maintain system integrity.
