A threaded elbow is a type of pipe fitting used to change the direction of flow in a piping system. It is designed to be connected to pipes using threads, which are screw-like grooves cut into the inside (female) or outside (male) of the fitting. Threaded elbows are commonly used in low-pressure systems and applications where ease of installation and disassembly are important.
90° Threaded Elbow: Changes the flow direction by 90 degrees.
45° Threaded Elbow: Changes the flow direction by 45 degrees.
Long Radius Threaded Elbow: Provides a smoother flow transition with a larger radius.
Short Radius Threaded Elbow: More compact, suitable for tight spaces.

1. Ease of Installation:Threaded elbows can be easily installed and removed without the need for welding or special tools, making them ideal for maintenance and repairs.
2. Cost-effective:Threaded connections are generally less expensive than welded or flanged connections, especially for small-diameter pipes.
3. No Welding Required:Threaded elbows eliminate the need for welding, which reduces installation time and costs.
5. Reusability:Threaded elbows can be unscrewed and reused, making them suitable for temporary or modular piping systems.
5. Versatility:Available in a wide range of materials, sizes, and configurations to suit various applications.
6. Suitable for Low-pressure Systems:Ideal for systems operating at low to moderate pressures.
1. Oil and Gas: For low-pressure systems where frequent maintenance is required.
2. Chemical Industry: In corrosive environments where materials like stainless steel are preferred.
3. Plumbing: In residential and commercial water supply systems.
4. Heating Systems: For redirecting flow in heating systems.
5. Water Supply Systems: In municipal water distribution networks.
6. Power Plants: For low-pressure steam and water lines.
7. Food Processing: In systems where hygiene and durability are critical.
