Unidelta elbow joint PE 50 x 50 mm 602050

Unidelta elbow joint PE 50 x 50 mm 602050 is a polyethylene (PE) pipe fitting designed to create a 90° turn between two 50 mm diameter PE pipes. Intended for use in water distribution, irrigation and underground piping systems, this elbow supports standard PE joining methods including heat fusion and electrofusion where applicable. The fitting is produced to provide a durable, crack-resistant connection suitable for buried or exposed installations in agricultural, residential and light-commercial networks.

Advantages

The elbow joint is made from polyethylene, offering chemical resistance, flexibility and resistance to soil stresses and moderate impacts. Its smooth internal surface reduces flow resistance and the potential for sediment buildup. Designed for compatibility with 50 mm PE pipes, the fitting enables reliable 90° changes of direction while maintaining the hydraulic performance of the pipeline when correctly installed.

Suitable for

• Water distribution mains and service lines composed of 50 mm PE pipe
• Irrigation networks for agriculture and landscaping
• Underground piping installations where welded or fused PE connections are used
• Replacement or repair of existing PE pipeline bends

Key specifications

• Material: polyethylene (PE)
• Nominal pipe diameter: 50 mm
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Application: potable and non-potable water systems, irrigation and underground piping
• Connection method: compatible with PE fusion joining techniques (heat fusion/electrofusion as applicable)
• Typical installation: buried or above-ground runs in residential, agricultural or light commercial use

How to use

Select appropriate 50 mm polyethylene pipes and confirm material compatibility. Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and cleaning surfaces according to the chosen PE joining method. Join the elbow to pipe ends using the recommended fusion technique (butt fusion, socket fusion or electrofusion) following manufacturer's and local installation standards. Allow cooling and inspection time before applying pressure. Ensure proper bedding and backfill when installed underground to avoid point loads or movement.

Usage recommendations

Use certified fusion equipment and trained personnel for heat or electrofusion welding. Verify system pressure ratings and follow local regulations for potable water if used in drinking-water applications. Protect the fitting from prolonged UV exposure if left above ground and provide adequate mechanical protection where subject to external loads.
