Copper Elbow 15mm
The Copper Elbow 15mm category at Build4Less offers a variety of high-quality copper elbows designed to meet various plumbing requirements. These fittings are essential in plumbing systems for changing the direction of piping, and are particularly useful in tight spaces where a straight pipe cannot be laid. Our collection, primarily from the renowned vendor Primaflow, ensures reliability and durability.
Types of Copper Elbows
- Standard Compression Elbows: Ideal for connecting two copper pipes at a 90-degree angle, these elbows are perfect for residential and commercial plumbing systems. The PD12 DZR Primaflow Compression Elbow 15mm is a notable example, available in a pack of 10. These are easy to install and do not require soldering, making them a convenient choice for quick repairs and installations.
- Compression WallPlate Elbows: These are specifically designed for instances where the plumbing system connects to a wall or a fixture. The PD15 DZR Primaflow Compression Wallplate Elbow 15mm x 1/2" Female exemplifies this type, offering a secure and leak-proof connection at the point where the piping meets the wall.
Female Threaded Elbows: These elbows feature a female threaded end, allowing for easy attachment to male threaded pipes or fittings. The PC14 Primaflow Compression Elbow 15mm x 3/4" Female, available in a pack of 10, is a prime example. This type is particularly useful in mixed-material plumbing systems, where copper pipes need to connect to different types of piping or fixtures.
Practical Uses
- Residential Plumbing: Ideal for home plumbing systems, especially in kitchens and bathrooms where space is limited.
- Commercial Applications: Suitable for larger plumbing systems in commercial buildings, offering robustness and ease of maintenance.
Heating Systems: Frequently used in heating systems, including radiators and underfloor heating, due to copper's excellent thermal conductivity.
