Ricom elbow connector PP-PP 45° DN60/100 for pipe transition

The Ricom elbow connector PP-PP 45° DN60/100 for pipe transition is a polypropylene fitting designed to join pipes of two different nominal diameters, DN60 and DN100, with a 45-degree change of direction. Intended for use in drainage and ventilation systems, the fitting provides a smooth transition between unequal pipe sizes while maintaining flow characteristics and chemical resistance inherent to polypropylene material.

Advantages

The connector is manufactured from durable polypropylene, offering chemical resistance, low weight and resistance to corrosion and scaling. Its 45° angle allows for gentler directional changes compared with sharp elbows, reducing turbulence and aiding flow. The fitting's socket ends are shaped to accommodate DN60 and DN100 pipes, simplifying installation when transitioning between sizes.

Suitable for

• Drainage systems where a transition between DN60 and DN100 pipes is required
• Ventilation ducting and waste air conduits using polypropylene piping
• Building plumbing projects needing a 45° directional change between unequal pipe diameters
• Renovation works where existing piping sizes must be connected

Key specifications

• Material: polypropylene (PP)
• Angle: 45° elbow
• Connections: socket ends sized for DN60 and DN100
• Application: pipe transition for drainage and ventilation systems
• Resistance: chemical and corrosion resistant typical of PP

How to use

Ensure both DN60 and DN100 pipes are clean, free of debris and cut squarely. Insert the correct pipe ends into the matching sockets of the elbow connector until a secure fit is achieved. Depending on the piping system and local practice, use the appropriate joining method for polypropylene—such as solvent welding, thermal welding, or elastomeric seals—following manufacturer and installer guidelines to ensure leak-free joints. Check alignment and slope where necessary for drainage applications before final fixation.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility of joining methods and any sealing materials with polypropylene. For drainage installations, maintain proper slope and support spacing to prevent stresses at the transition. Avoid exposure to direct UV for prolonged periods or provide protective covering in outdoor installations.
