KAN-therm stainless steel press elbow 90° 76.1×76.1 mm model 6230037

The KAN-therm stainless steel press elbow 90° 76.1×76.1 mm model 6230037 is a precision-formed elbow designed to join two 76.1 mm stainless steel pipes at a right angle using a press-fit connection. Intended for plumbing, heating and industrial fluid systems, this elbow provides a corrosion-resistant, smooth-flowing turn suitable for inox piping installations where a reliable mechanical joint is required. The component supports installations that need stable hydraulic performance and long-term resistance to scaling and oxidation.

Advantages

This stainless steel press elbow offers material resistance to corrosion and temperature variations inherent to inox construction, ensuring a long service life in potable water and heating applications. The press-fit joint design enables fast, repeatable assembly without the need for hot work, flux or fillers. Precision dimensions and smooth internal contours reduce flow turbulence and pressure loss across the 90° bend. The product is compatible with standard press tools for stainless steel fittings and is suitable for concealed and exposed installations.

Suitable for

• Potable water distribution systems
• Domestic and commercial heating circuits
• Industrial fluid lines requiring corrosion resistance
• Renovation and new-build stainless steel piping installations

Key specifications

• Material: stainless steel (inox)
• Connection type: press-fit joint
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Nominal pipe diameter: 76.1 mm (both ends)
• Suitable for potable water and heating media
• Surface finish: smooth internal contour for reduced flow resistance

How to use

Prepare the stainless steel pipes by cutting squarely and deburring the ends. Mark insertion depth on the pipe and ensure the press fitting and tool selected are rated for stainless steel press connections of the specified diameter. Insert the pipe fully into the elbow until the marked depth is reached, then operate the compatible press tool according to the tool manufacturer's instructions to form the permanent press joint. After pressing, inspect the connection visually for correct deformation and test the system for leaks according to applicable standards and local regulations.

Usage recommendations

Use calibrated press tools and the correct jaw profiles for 76.1 mm stainless steel fittings. Store fittings in a dry environment to avoid surface contamination, and avoid mechanical damage to sealing areas before installation. Follow local codes for potable water and heating installations and perform pressure testing after assembly to confirm joint integrity.
