PERLA Male Elbow 32mm x 1 inch Blue

The PERLA male elbow is a professional-grade plumbing fitting designed to provide a secure and reliable 90-degree connection in water supply systems. Featuring a 32mm pipe diameter and a 1-inch male threaded connection, this component is manufactured from high-quality polypropylene to ensure long-term durability and resistance to environmental factors. Its robust design is engineered to maintain system integrity under pressure, making it an essential part of modern piping infrastructure.

Advantages

This male elbow offers exceptional reliability due to its high-pressure rating of up to 16 Bar, ensuring it can handle demanding water distribution tasks without the risk of leaks or structural failure. The use of premium polypropylene provides excellent chemical resistance and longevity, while the precise 90-degree angle allows for efficient routing of pipes in tight spaces. Its user-friendly design facilitates quick and straightforward installation, reducing labor time and the need for specialized tools, which makes it a preferred choice for both professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts.

Suitable for

• Residential water supply systems
• Commercial irrigation networks
• Agricultural water distribution
• Outdoor piping installations

This fitting may not be suitable for high-temperature applications, such as hot water heating systems, as it is primarily designed for cold water use. It is also not intended for use with gas lines or chemical transport systems that exceed the material compatibility of polypropylene.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 32 mm
• Connection: 1-inch male thread
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Material: Polypropylene
• Maximum pressure: 16 Bar
• Color: Blue and black

To install the PERLA male elbow, ensure the pipe end is clean and free of debris. Insert the 32mm pipe into the compression side of the fitting until it is fully seated, then tighten the nut securely to create a watertight seal. For the 1-inch male threaded side, apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the threads before screwing it into the corresponding female port. Ensure the connection is tightened firmly by hand or with a suitable wrench, taking care not to overtighten and damage the threads.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your existing pipe matches the 32mm specification.
• Check that the receiving port has a compatible 1-inch female thread.
• Ensure the operating pressure of your system does not exceed 16 Bar.
• Confirm the application is for cold water use only.

For optimal performance and to prevent potential leaks, always ensure that the pipe is cut squarely and deburred before insertion. Regularly inspect the connection after the initial installation to confirm system stability.
