Compression Elbow 90° Herz 32x3 mm (1" female thread) - plumbing fitting

Herz Compression Elbow 90° 32x3 mm with 1" female thread is a right-angle plumbing fitting designed to connect 32x3 mm copper or compatible pipes to a threaded outlet. The fitting combines a compression-style connection on the pipe side and a female threaded port, enabling a compact 90° turn in water and heating installations. It is suitable for hot and cold potable water systems and most domestic and commercial heating circuits where a threaded connection is required.

Advantages

The compression design provides a reliable, leak-resistant joint without the need for soldering, maintaining mechanical strength at the pipe-to-fitting interface. The 90° configuration saves space and simplifies routing in tight installations. A female thread allows direct attachment of threaded components, valves or accessories, reducing the need for additional adapters. The fitting is compatible with standard 32x3 mm copper tubing and other approved pipe materials for compression fittings.

Suitable for

• Right-angle connections in domestic potable water supply
• Hot and cold water distribution in residential and commercial buildings
• Integration with threaded valves, gauges and accessories
• Space-constrained pipe routing where a compact 90° turn is needed

Key specifications

• Pipe connection size: 32x3 mm (compression side)
• Thread connection: 1" female thread
• Type: 90° elbow compression fitting
• Material: corrosion-resistant metal suitable for water and heating systems
• Application: hot and cold potable water and heating installations

How to use

Prepare the pipe end by cutting square and removing burrs; ensure the outer diameter matches 32x3 mm. Slide the compression nut and ring onto the pipe, insert the pipe fully into the fitting body, then hand-tighten the compression nut onto the fitting. Use appropriate tools to secure the nut to the manufacturer's recommended torque or until a leak-free joint is achieved. Thread the 1" female port to the mating threaded component using suitable sealant or tape on the male thread where required. After assembly, pressure-test the installation according to local regulations and the system's operating parameters.

Usage recommendations

Use with compatible copper or approved plastic-lined metal pipes and standard 1" male-threaded components; avoid excessive torque on compression nuts and verify seals during pressure testing. Follow applicable local codes for potable water and heating systems and consult the manufacturer's documentation for specific installation torque values and material compatibility.
