ABX Elbow Funnel 45° D200, sheet thickness 1.5 mm

ABX Elbow Funnel 45° D200, sheet thickness 1.5 mm is a circular metal duct fitting with a 45-degree bend and a nominal diameter of 200 mm. Manufactured from 1.5 mm sheet steel, this elbow funnel is designed to redirect airflow or granular materials within ventilation, dust extraction and industrial ductwork while maintaining a smooth transition between connected circular ducts.

Advantages

The 45° angle reduces turbulence compared with sharper bends, helping to preserve flow efficiency. Construction from 1.5 mm sheet steel provides durability and resistance to deformation in typical ventilation and extraction applications. The circular connection profile ensures compatibility with standard 200 mm ducting and enables secure joints with common connectors or clamps.

Suitable for

• Ventilation systems in residential, commercial or light industrial buildings
• Dust extraction and fume removal lines where a gradual change of direction is required
• Material handling of dry granular substances conveyed by airflow
• Retrofit or new installations using 200 mm circular ducts

When it may not be suitable

This elbow funnel is intended for air or dry particulate conveying and is not designed for pressurised liquid transport. It may be unsuitable where thicker mechanical protection, corrosion resistance beyond standard sheet steel, or bespoke flanged connections are required. For systems needing a tighter bend or a different flow profile, alternative angles or transitional fittings should be considered.

Key specifications

• Nominal diameter: 200 mm
• Bend angle: 45°
• Material thickness: 1.5 mm sheet metal
• Shape: circular elbow/funnel

How to use

Install the ABX 45° elbow funnel by aligning its circular ends with the adjoining 200 mm ducts and secure using appropriate clamps, tapes or connectors compatible with sheet metal ducts. Ensure the airflow direction matches the elbow orientation and that joints are sealed to prevent leaks if required by the application. Inspect and support the assembly to prevent sagging or misalignment, and perform routine checks for wear or accumulation of dust and debris.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the duct nominal diameter is 200 mm to ensure compatibility
• Check that 1.5 mm sheet steel thickness meets mechanical and wear requirements
• Assess whether corrosion protection or surface treatment is needed for your environment
• Verify that a 45° change of direction suits the system’s flow and space constraints

Usage recommendations

Use the elbow funnel in systems designed for air or dry particulate flow, mount with adequate support and seal joints where leakage or contamination control is required. For abrasive or corrosive materials, consider protective linings or alternative materials.
