PVC elbow Ag-Mar model 5908312558118, white, Ø37 mm

Ag-Mar PVC elbow model 5908312558118 in white is a 90-degree fitting with a nominal diameter of 37 mm, intended to connect and change the direction of PVC pipes in drainage, sewage and ventilation systems. The elbow provides a smooth internal passage to reduce flow resistance and is compatible with other Ø37 mm PVC fittings for straightforward installation in domestic and light commercial plumbing applications.

Advantages

This PVC elbow offers corrosion-resistant, non-porous construction that does not rust or degrade under normal contact with water or commonly encountered wastewater. Its uniform inner surface reduces the risk of clogging and helps maintain consistent flow. The product is lightweight and easy to handle, which simplifies alignment and fitting during installation. Designed to work with standard Ø37 mm PVC pipes, it allows quick integration into existing pipe runs without the need for specialized adapters.

Suitable for

• Domestic drainage and waste pipe systems
• Sewage and soil stacks in low-pressure applications
• Ventilation ducts where PVC fittings of the same diameter are acceptable
• Repair or modification of existing Ø37 mm PVC pipe runs

When it may not be suitable

This elbow is intended for use with PVC piping in gravity or low-pressure systems and is not designed for high-pressure fluid or gas transport. It is unsuitable for installations that require heat-resistant materials or where exposure to solvents and aggressive chemicals is expected, as prolonged chemical attack can impair PVC integrity. For buried high-load structural applications or systems requiring metal fittings, alternative materials should be considered.

Key specifications

• Material: rigid PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
• Nominal diameter: 37 mm
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Color: white
• Connection type: slip/socket for solvent-weld or push-fit with compatible Ø37 mm fittings
• Application: drainage, sewage, ventilation (domestic and light commercial)

How to use

Prepare the pipe ends by cutting square and deburring to ensure full insertion into the elbow socket. Clean the mating surfaces and, if using solvent-weld connections, apply the appropriate PVC primer and solvent cement according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. Insert the pipe fully into the elbow and hold briefly to ensure a secure bond. For push-fit systems, follow the push-fit product instructions to verify a leak-tight connection. Allow recommended curing time before subjecting the joint to flow or pressure. Inspect the assembled joint visually and by running water to check for leaks.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the nominal diameter (37 mm) matches the existing pipework and other fittings.
• Confirm the intended connection method (solvent-weld or compatible push-fit) is suitable for your installation.
• Check material compatibility with transported fluids and local building/plumbing codes.
• Verify whether white finish and external dimensions meet aesthetic or space constraints.

Usage recommendations

Handle and store the elbow away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to avoid material embrittlement. Use proper solvent cement and primer for permanent joints and allow full cure time before pressure testing. When routing multiple changes of direction, minimize the number of elbows where possible to reduce flow resistance.
