Angle adapter Unidelta Kolano PE GW 20 mm x 1/2" — pipe fitting, threaded connection

Unidelta Kolano PE GW 20 mm x 1/2" is a 90° angle adapter designed to connect 20 mm polyethylene (PE) pipe to a 1/2" female threaded fitting. The fitting provides a mechanical transition between flexible PE piping and conventional threaded components, enabling a right-angle change of direction in water distribution, irrigation and low-pressure plumbing systems.

Advantages

The adapter offers a compact 90° elbow that minimizes space requirements while maintaining a secure mechanical joint between PE pipe and threaded fixtures. Its design reduces the need for additional reducers or complex assemblies and simplifies installation where a threaded outlet is required. The product is suitable for potable water and irrigation environments when used with compatible materials and proper installation techniques.

Suitable for

• Connecting 20 mm PE pipes to 1/2" female threaded valves and taps
• Irrigation systems for gardens, lawns and small agricultural plots
• Low-pressure water distribution and service lines
• Temporary or permanent plumbing where a right-angle threaded connection is needed

Key specifications

• Connection type: PE plain end to 1/2" female thread
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Pipe compatibility: 20 mm polyethylene (PE)
• Typical application pressure: low-pressure water systems (follow system design and local codes)
• Material: corrosion-resistant polymer suitable for PE pipe connections

How to use

Prepare the 20 mm PE pipe by cutting it square and deburring the end. Insert the PE pipe into the adapter's plain end according to the manufacturer's recommended insertion depth, ensuring a snug mechanical fit. Apply appropriate sealing tape or sealant to the male threaded counterpart if required, then engage the 1/2" female thread and tighten to a secure hand- or wrench-tight connection without over-torquing. Verify alignment and ensure the elbow points in the intended direction before final tightening. Test the assembled system for leaks at operating pressure following installation.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible PE pipe and threaded components and follow local plumbing codes. Avoid exposing the joint to pressures or temperatures beyond the system design. If used for potable water, verify material suitability and hygiene requirements. Periodically inspect threaded joints for tightness and signs of wear or leaks.
