Compression Elbow Comap TurboSKIN 16x2 mm — angled pipe fitting for plumbing

Compression Elbow Comap TurboSKIN 16x2 mm is an angled plumbing fitting designed to connect 16 mm (16x2) plastic or multilayer pipes with a compression (clamp) assembly. The fitting creates a 90° change of direction while maintaining a mechanical, leak-tight connection suitable for potable water and heating systems in residential and commercial installations.

Advantages

The TurboSKIN compression elbow provides a compact and durable solution for right-angle pipe turns without soldering or adhesive. Its compression design ensures a secure mechanical seal that simplifies installation and removal for maintenance. Constructed for compatibility with common 16x2 plastic and multilayer pipes, the fitting is intended to deliver consistent performance under typical domestic and light-commercial water and heating pressures.

Suitable for

• Changing pipe direction by 90° in potable water distribution
• Right-angle connections in heating circuits and radiators
• Domestic plumbing repairs and retrofits with 16x2 mm pipes
• Commercial installations where mechanical compression fittings are preferred

Key specifications

• Pipe diameter compatibility: 16 mm (nominal, 16x2)
• Type of connection: compression (clamp) fitting
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Material: designed for use with plastic and multilayer pipes
• Application: potable water and heating systems

How to use

Ensure pipe ends are cut square, clean and free of burrs before assembly. Slide the compression nut and sealing components onto the pipe, insert the pipe fully into the elbow body until it reaches the internal stop, then tighten the compression nut by hand and finish with an appropriate wrench to the manufacturer’s recommended torque. Check the connection visually and test the system under operating pressure to confirm leak-tight performance. For disassembly, loosen the compression nut and withdraw the pipe; replace sealing parts if reusing the fitting.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible 16x2 plastic or multilayer pipes and follow local plumbing codes. Avoid overtightening the compression nut to prevent damage to sealing components. Inspect fittings and seals periodically in systems subject to vibration or thermal cycling.
