TECE 90° angle elbow in brass with a 20 mm connection diameter is a compact plumbing fitting designed to change the direction of a pipe run by ninety degrees. Manufactured by TECE, this elbow suits installations where a durable metal connection is required for domestic water supply, heating circuits and repair or extension of existing 20 mm pipework. The product is intended for use with compatible 20 mm piping systems and provides a space-efficient right-angle turn while maintaining flow characteristics appropriate for typical residential and light-commercial plumbing.

Advantages

How to use

Install the TECE 90° brass elbow by preparing the pipe ends according to the chosen joining method and system requirements (cut square, deburr, and clean). Slide or connect the 20 mm pipe into the elbow following the system's instructions for press, compression or soldered joints as applicable. Ensure proper alignment, full insertion depth and, where required, use appropriate sealing elements or soldering techniques. After installation, verify the connection for leaks and, if used in heating systems, perform any necessary system flush and pressure tests before commissioning.

Usage recommendations

Use this brass elbow with compatible 20 mm system components and follow manufacturer guidance for the chosen joining method. Avoid using incompatible sealants or aggressive chemicals that can damage brass. When installed in systems carrying potable water, comply with local regulations for materials in contact with drinking water and perform pressure testing after installation.
