Pipe Elbow with Hanger 25 x 1/2 PP-R by Detal-met

Detal-met Pipe Elbow with Hanger 25 x 1/2 PP-R is a polypropylene random copolymer (PP-R) elbow fitting with an integrated hanger designed for connecting 25 mm plastic pipes to 1/2" threaded fittings. Intended for use in hot and cold water distribution and central heating systems, this compact elbow provides a supported change of direction and a stable, threaded outlet for attaching valves, taps, or other components. The unit combines corrosion-resistant PP-R construction with a built-in mounting point to simplify installation and reduce stress on pipe runs.

Advantages

The PP-R material offers chemical and corrosion resistance, thermal stability for typical domestic and commercial water temperatures, and long-term dimensional stability. The integrated hanger secures the elbow to structural elements, reducing load on joints and preventing movement or sagging. The threaded 1/2" outlet provides compatibility with common metal and plastic fittings, enabling straightforward transitions between plastic pipework and threaded components without additional adapters when thread standards match.

Suitable for

• Hot and cold water distribution systems in residential and commercial buildings
• Central heating circuits where a supported 90° change of direction is required
• Connections to valves, taps, gauges or other 1/2" threaded devices
• Installations requiring a fixed mounting point to prevent pipe movement

Key specifications

• Material: Polypropylene random copolymer (PP-R)
• Pipe connection size: 25 mm socket for PP-R pipes
• Threaded outlet: 1/2" female threaded connection
• Configuration: 90° elbow with integrated hanger/mounting point
• Typical applications: potable water and central heating systems

How to use

Prepare the 25 mm PP-R pipe end by cutting squarely and removing any burrs. Join the pipe into the socket using the appropriate heat-fusion or socket-fusion technique recommended for PP-R systems, ensuring correct fusion temperatures and times for the pipe wall thickness. Secure the elbow hanger to a suitable structural element using appropriate fasteners for the surface material, positioning the hanger so the threaded outlet aligns with the connected device. Thread the 1/2" fitting or valve into the outlet using suitable sealing method for the thread type, such as PTFE tape or a compatible sealant, if required.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility of the 1/2" threaded component with the elbow thread standard before assembly. Ensure correct heat fusion parameters are used for the specific PP-R pipe and fitting to achieve durable joints. Support pipe runs at recommended intervals and avoid imposing excessive mechanical loads on the hanger; inspect connections after initial system pressurization and periodically as part of routine maintenance.
