Profec – Elbow 90° PVC-U 160 mm glue socket 16 bar grey

At 160 mm internal diameter with a leg length (Cb) of 167 mm on both outlets, this is one of the largest elbow fittings in the Profec metric PVC-U pressure range — purpose-built for high-flow trunk pipework in commercial pools, water treatment, and industrial circulation systems. The 90° geometry redirects flow cleanly within a compact footprint, and the 16 bar pressure rating ensures a wide safety margin well beyond typical pool plant-room operating pressures.

Solvent-cement connection & standards compliance

Both sockets accept standard PVC-U solvent cement (glue socket / plain-end pipe), forming a monolithic, leak-free joint. The fitting is manufactured in accordance with EN-ISO 1452-3, the European standard governing dimensions, materials, and performance of unplasticised PVC pressure fittings for water supply — giving specifiers and installers the confidence of a fully certified component.

Resistència a materials i productes químics

Moulded from unplasticised PVC (PVC-U), the fitting is inherently resistant to chlorinated water, salt water, and most pool treatment chemicals, making it equally suitable for freshwater and salt-chlorinated systems. The grey colouring is consistent across the Profec metric pressure range, simplifying identification and maintaining a uniform appearance throughout the plant room.

Large-bore pipework applications

A 160 mm bore elbow is typically specified on the main suction or return headers of large commercial or semi-commercial pools, high-capacity filter banks, and pump manifolds where smaller fittings would create unacceptable head loss. Pairing this elbow with matching 160 mm Profec straight sockets, tees, and reducers from the same product family ensures consistent wall thickness and pressure rating throughout the system.
