PERLA Male Elbow Fitting 25mm x 1 inch Blue

The PERLA male elbow fitting, sized 25mm x 1 inch, is a professional-grade plumbing component engineered for creating secure, 90-degree transitions in water supply systems. Constructed from high-quality polypropylene, this fitting provides a robust and durable solution for connecting 25mm pipes to 1-inch threaded components. Its design ensures a reliable, leak-proof seal, making it an essential part of modern irrigation, residential, and commercial water distribution networks.

Advantages

This fitting stands out due to its high-pressure resistance, capable of withstanding up to 16 bar, which ensures stability in demanding plumbing environments. The use of premium polypropylene material offers excellent resistance to corrosion and chemical degradation, extending the service life of the connection. Its precise 90-degree angle design facilitates efficient flow direction changes without compromising system integrity, while the intuitive assembly process allows for quick and secure installation by both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.

Suitable for

• Residential water supply systems
• Agricultural and garden irrigation networks
• Commercial plumbing installations
• Connecting polyethylene pipes to threaded valves or pumps

This fitting may not be suitable for high-temperature applications, such as hot water heating systems, as it is designed primarily for cold water use. Additionally, it is not intended for use with gas lines or high-pressure steam systems, and it should not be installed in environments where the pipe material is incompatible with polypropylene.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 25 mm
• Thread: 1 inch male thread
• Material: Polypropylene
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Maximum pressure: 16 Bar
• Colour: Blue and black

To use the PERLA male elbow, ensure the pipe end is cut cleanly and deburred. Insert the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the internal stop, ensuring the compression nut is tightened securely to create a watertight seal. For the threaded side, apply appropriate thread sealant tape to the 1-inch male end before screwing it into the corresponding female component to prevent leaks.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your existing pipe matches the 25mm specification.
• Ensure the threaded connection point is a standard 1-inch female thread.
• Confirm that the system pressure does not exceed the 16 bar limit.
• Check compatibility with cold water systems only.

Usage recommendations: Always ensure that the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting before tightening the nut. Avoid overtightening the threaded connection to prevent damage to the plastic threads. Regular inspection of the connection is recommended to ensure long-term performance.
