Elbow 90° press-fit MultiSkin PPSU 16×16 Comap

The Comap Elbow 90° press-fit MultiSkin PPSU 16×16 is a press-fit fitting designed to connect two perpendicular MultiSkin PPSU pipes of 16 mm diameter. Intended for potable water and heating systems, this compact elbow provides a corrosion-resistant joint that maintains flow integrity and mechanical stability in residential and light commercial installations. The fitting is compatible with MultiSkin PPSU pipe systems and is sized specifically for 16×16 connections, offering a neat, low-profile turn where piping changes direction.

Advantages

This press-fit 90° elbow offers a reliable, quick-install connection without the need for soldering or adhesive bonding. The PPSU material provides resistance to corrosion, chemical attack and long-term hydrolysis, while preserving mechanical strength and dimensional stability. The compact geometry minimizes space requirements in confined installations and the press-fit system delivers consistent sealing performance and reduced risk of leaks when installed with the correct tools.

Suitable for

• Domestic potable water distribution
• Domestic and small-scale heating circuits
• Renovation projects in tight spaces requiring compact fittings
• Plumbing systems specified for MultiSkin PPSU components

Key specifications

• Connection type: press-fit for MultiSkin PPSU pipes
• Material: PPSU (polyphenylsulfone)
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Pipe size compatibility: 16×16 mm
• Application: potable water and heating systems
• Corrosion resistance: high (polymeric fitting)

How to use

Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and deburring to ensure a smooth, clean surface. Verify pipe insertion depth markings and insert the MultiSkin PPSU pipe fully into each end of the elbow. Use the recommended press tool and jaw sized for 16 mm MultiSkin PPSU press fittings to complete the mechanical press connection according to the tool and fitting manufacturer instructions. After pressing, inspect the joint visually and confirm correct compression; perform pressure testing of the circuit as required by local codes and installation practices.

Usage recommendations

Use only compatible MultiSkin PPSU pipes and the correct press tool/jaw for 16 mm fittings. Do not re-use fittings after pressing. Follow applicable plumbing standards and local regulations for potable water and heating system installations, and perform pressure and leak tests before commissioning.
