Unidelta elbow PE GZ 50 mm x 6/4" (male-threaded pipe fitting)

The Unidelta elbow PE GZ 50 mm x 6/4" is a polyethylene 90° pipe fitting with a male-threaded end designed to connect PE pipe to threaded components. Constructed from durable polyethylene, the fitting provides a corrosion-resistant transition between plastic piping and metal or threaded fittings. It is intended for use in potable water systems, irrigation networks and general plumbing installations where a reliable threaded connection is required.

Advantages

This elbow offers a secure male-threaded connection while preserving the flexibility and chemical resistance of polyethylene. Its 90° bend enables compact directional changes in piping runs without additional adapters. The fitting is lightweight, resistant to corrosion and scaling, and suitable for long-term use in wet environments. The design minimizes the risk of leaks at the transition between PE pipe and threaded components when installed with appropriate sealing materials.

Suitable for

• Potable water distribution systems
• Irrigation and agricultural piping
• Repair or retrofit of plumbing lines with threaded valves or fixtures
• Outdoor installations exposed to moisture and chemical exposure

Key specifications

• Material: Polyethylene (PE)
• Connection type: Socket for PE pipe and male threaded end
• Pipe size compatibility: 50 mm PE pipe
• Thread size: 6/4" male thread (for mating with compatible threaded fittings)
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Typical applications: potable water, irrigation, general plumbing

How to use

Prepare the PE pipe end by cutting square and removing any burrs, then insert the pipe into the socket end of the elbow according to the manufacturer’s recommended depth. Secure the mechanical or fusion connection per the PE joining method specified for the system (electrofusion, butt fusion or mechanical compression as appropriate). Apply an appropriate thread sealant or tape to the male threads before engaging the threaded component to ensure a leak-resistant joint. Tighten the threaded connection to the torque recommended for the mating material and thread size to avoid over-stressing the plastic fitting.

Usage recommendations

Inspect mating threads and sealing surfaces for damage prior to assembly. Use thread sealant compatible with potable water systems when the installation conveys drinking water. Avoid excessive torque on threaded connections and follow local plumbing codes for installation and pressure ratings.
