GEBO 90° threaded elbow 1" black (model 90-6S)

GEBO 90° threaded elbow 1" black (model 90-6S) is a compact right-angle fitting designed to change flow direction in threaded piping systems. The fitting features 1" male/female threaded connections and a black finish suitable for visible installations or systems where a darker appearance is required. It provides a sealed mechanical joint when tightened with compatible threaded fittings and sealing materials, enabling straightforward installation and maintenance in plumbing, heating and industrial fluid systems.

Advantages

The 90° threaded elbow delivers a reliable directional change while occupying minimal space, allowing compact routing of pipes where a right-angle turn is needed. Its threaded connections permit tool-assisted assembly and disassembly without soldering or welding, simplifying repairs and system modifications. The black finish offers corrosion resistance depending on the base material and gives a consistent visual appearance in installations where matching dark components is preferred.

Suitable for

• Plumbing systems requiring 1" threaded connections
• Heating and radiator piping with compatible thread standards
• Industrial pipelines where compact 90° turns are needed
• Temporary or maintenance connections that benefit from threaded joints

Key specifications

• Connection type: 1" threaded (compatible with standard 1-inch threaded fittings)
• Angle: 90° elbow for right-angle directional change
• Finish: black
• Application: fluid flow redirection in plumbing, heating and industrial systems
• Assembly: threaded joint; requires appropriate sealing (tape, paste, or gasket) as per system requirements

How to use

Prepare mating threads by cleaning and applying an appropriate thread sealant such as PTFE tape or pipe thread compound according to the system's pressure and media. Hand-start the elbow onto the mating fitting to ensure correct thread engagement, then tighten with suitable tools to the manufacturer's recommended torque for the threaded material. Inspect the joint for alignment and leaks after pressurizing the system and re-tighten if necessary following safety procedures.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible 1" threaded fittings and select a thread sealant suitable for the transported medium and system pressure. Avoid over-tightening to prevent thread damage; follow torque guidance for the pipe material. For systems handling aggressive media or higher temperatures, verify material compatibility and consider additional protective measures.
