KAN-therm 90° Short Elbow Female Threaded Steel 28 Rp1/2 (model 1509069013)

KAN-therm 90° Short Elbow Female Threaded Steel 28 Rp1/2 is a compact right-angle fitting designed for pipe systems that require a durable, threaded steel connection. The fitting has an outside diameter of 28 mm and a female Rp1/2 threaded port, providing a mechanical joint for connecting compatible metal or threaded components. It is intended for use where space is limited and a reliable 90° change of direction is needed in heating, plumbing or industrial installations.

Advantages

The steel construction ensures mechanical strength and resistance to deformation under load. The short design reduces the space required for installation and minimizes protrusion from the pipe run. The Rp1/2 female thread offers a common thread standard for secure connections with mating threaded fittings, valves or adapters. The simple geometry and robust material provide long service life in typical heating and plumbing environments.

Suitable for

• Domestic and commercial heating systems
• Plumbing installations requiring threaded steel connections
• Industrial piping where a compact 90° change of direction is needed
• Connections to valves, adapters and threaded accessories with Rp1/2 threads

Key specifications

• Material: steel
• Angle: 90° (short elbow)
• Connection type: female threaded Rp1/2
• Outside diameter: 28 mm
• Application areas: heating, plumbing, industrial piping

How to use

Prepare the mating pipe or fitting by cleaning the thread surfaces and, if required by installation practice, applying appropriate thread sealing or jointing compound compatible with steel threads and the media conveyed. Align the elbow with the mating thread and hand-start the connection to avoid cross-threading, then tighten to the required torque using an appropriate wrench or tool. Ensure the elbow is positioned to achieve the correct flow direction and that adjacent supports accommodate the change in orientation. After assembly, inspect the joint for proper engagement and test the system according to relevant pressure and leak-testing procedures.

Usage recommendations

Use thread sealing methods approved for the system medium and operating conditions; avoid overtightening to prevent thread damage. Verify material compatibility with the conveyed fluid and the system's maximum temperature and pressure ratings before installation.
