These PVC 45° elbow solvent weld connectors are engineered to solve exactly that problem, delivering a smooth 45-degree directional change that maintains strong flow rates across a wide range of pipe diameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach fitting is manufactured from rigid white PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and joins pipe using a solvent-cement weld — creating a permanent, watertight bond. Inner diameter (ID) sizes range from 20mm (~¾ in) up to 160mm (~6¼ in), covering the most common residential and light-commercial pipe schedules. Wall thickness and outer dimensions follow standard metric PVC pipe tolerances, ensuring compatibility with matching-diameter solvent-weld pipe stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypical applications include residential garden irrigation systems requiring angled branch runs, underground drainage and stormwater pipework where a gradual directional change reduces blockage risk, and above-ground cold-water supply lines in workshops or utility rooms. The 45° angle is also widely specified for PVC conduit installations where cable routing must follow building structure angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-compat\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"hdiy-compat-icon\"\u003e🔗\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for use with standard metric PVC pressure and drainage pipe of matching inner diameter.

For example, a 32mm ID elbow is designed to accept standard 32mm OD metric PVC pipe. If you are unsure, measure the outside of your existing pipe and cross-reference with standard metric PVC pipe sizing charts — the fitting ID should equal the pipe OD for a solvent-weld socket joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use these elbows for pressurised water supply lines?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-faq-body\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese fittings are suitable for cold-water pressurised applications when correctly solvent-welded.

Rigid PVC is inherently resistant to corrosion, soil acids, and most common fertilisers and household chemicals. It does not rust or degrade from moisture exposure, making it well-suited for buried drainage, underground irrigation, and exposed outdoor pipework. UV exposure over many years can cause surface discolouration, but structural integrity is generally maintained in most outdoor environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat solvent cement and primer should I use?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-faq-body\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a PVC-rated solvent cement and, where required by local plumbing codes, a PVC primer\/cleaner before applying cement. Apply primer to both the pipe end and the fitting socket, then apply solvent cement to both surfaces and push the pipe firmly into the socket with a slight twist. Hold for approximately 30 seconds. Allow the joint to cure fully before pressurising — typically 15–30 minutes for light handling and 24 hours before full pressure testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eAre these compatible with both pressure pipe and drainage pipe?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-faq-body\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese solvent-weld elbows are compatible with standard metric PVC pipe of the matching inner diameter, which includes both pressure-rated and drainage-grade pipe in the same nominal size.

This is particularly beneficial in gravity-fed drainage systems where maintaining flow velocity is important to prevent solids from settling, and in pressurised irrigation lines where minimising pressure loss across fittings improves system efficiency. Two 45° elbows can also be combined to achieve a 90° offset with a longer sweep radius than a single 90° elbow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I buy just one fitting, or do I need to purchase a full pack?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-faq-body\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can purchase as few as 1 piece — simply select \"1 pcs\" from the Amount option above.
