Unidelta plumbing elbow Kolano PE GW 40 mm x 6/4" (602641) thread female

Unidelta Kolano PE GW 40 mm x 6/4" is a polyethylene plumbing elbow that provides a compact 90° change of direction while allowing transition from a 40 mm PE pipe to a 6/4" female threaded fitting. Developed for use in water distribution, irrigation and general plumbing systems, this elbow connects PE piping to fixtures or metal threaded components and is suitable for potable water and typical fluid conveyance where a PE-to-thread connection is required.

Advantages

The elbow is made of durable polyethylene material that resists corrosion and typical chemical exposure found in potable water and irrigation systems. Its integrated female threaded end offers reliable mechanical connection to threaded fittings and valves without the need for additional adapters, while the smooth PE pipe connection ensures a secure joint with standard fusion or compression methods. Compact 90° geometry reduces space requirements and simplifies routing of piping runs in confined installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting 40 mm PE pipe to 6/4" threaded fittings or valves
• Potable water distribution networks
• Irrigation systems and agricultural water lines
• General plumbing installations requiring a PE-to-thread transition

Key specifications

• Material: polyethylene (PE)
• Pipe connection diameter: 40 mm
• Thread type: female threaded 6/4"
• Angle: 90° elbow
• Typical applications: potable water, irrigation, general plumbing

How to use

Prepare the PE pipe end according to standard cutting and deburring procedures, ensuring a clean, square face for connection. Join the PE end using the appropriate method for the specific fitting type (electrofusion, butt fusion or a compatible mechanical compression joint) as per installation practice. Thread the female 6/4" end onto the corresponding male threaded fitting or valve, using appropriate thread sealant or tape where required by local codes. Verify alignment and tighten to the recommended torque for the mating components to ensure a leak-free joint.

Usage recommendations

Use the elbow within the pressure and temperature limits specified for the PE piping system in use. Ensure compatible materials on the threaded side (metal or plastic) and apply approved thread sealing methods. Inspect joints after initial pressurization and perform periodic checks as part of routine system maintenance.
