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

Sized at 90 mm internal diameter with a centre-to-end length (Cb) of 97 mm on both legs, this full-bore 90° elbow is rated to 16 bar and handles the large-bore pipework typical of commercial pool plant rooms and high-flow filtration systems. Manufactured in unplasticised PVC (PVC-U) to EN-ISO 1452-3, it delivers the chemical resistance and long service life that pool and spa installers rely on. Both sockets accept standard metric solvent-cement pipe, making integration with existing Profec or compatible metric PVC pressure systems straightforward.

Pressure rating & material integrity

PVC-U is inherently resistant to chlorinated water, common pool chemicals, and UV-stabilised formulations, making it the go-to material for pool pipework across Europe. The 16 bar working pressure rating at 90 mm bore is considerably above the operating pressures seen in residential and light-commercial pool circuits, giving installers a generous safety margin on return lines, filter manifolds, and pump discharge runs.

Solvent-cement connection & dimensional accuracy

Both sockets are dimensioned to EN-ISO 1452-3, ensuring consistent interference fit with metric PVC-U pipe and eliminating guesswork on the glue-up. The symmetrical 97 mm centre-to-end measurement on each leg allows precise offset calculations when routing pipework around plant-room obstacles, heat pumps, or filter vessels. A clean, leak-free bond is achieved with standard PVC solvent cement — no special tooling or compression rings required.

Sizing to your pool installation

At 90 mm, this elbow is suited to high-flow commercial or large residential pool installations where 63 mm or 75 mm bore would create unacceptable head loss — for instance, on the main suction or return headers of pools with multiple inlets, or on the bypass lines of large sand filter banks. It pairs directly with 90 mm Profec straight couplings, tees, reducers, and valves from the same metric grey pressure range.
