WaDex Chimney Elbow Pipe 45° 115160000 — flue elbow for chimney systems, diameter not specified

WaDex Chimney Elbow Pipe 45° (model 115160000) is a flue elbow designed to provide a reliable angled connection within chimney and stovepipe systems. The elbow creates a 45° change in direction for exhaust gases, enabling installers to adjust the flue run to accommodate building geometry, bypass obstacles, or connect appliances such as stoves and boilers to existing chimney sections. Constructed to mate with compatible chimney components, this elbow is intended for use where a smooth directional transition is required in a flue system.

Advantages

The WaDex 45° elbow offers a compact solution for directional changes in flue systems without the need for multiple short pipe sections; it reduces the number of joints and simplifies installation. Its 45° angle allows gentle redirection of exhaust flow, which can help maintain draft performance compared with sharper bends. The component is designed to integrate with corresponding chimney fittings and sections, providing a consistent connection and alignment in a flue assembly.

Suitable for

• Redirecting flue runs around structural or architectural obstacles
• Connecting stoves, boilers or heaters to an existing chimney layout
• Altering chimney direction to align with roof or wall penetrations
• Repairing or modifying sections of a chimney system where a slight angle is required

Key specifications

• Angle: 45° flue elbow for directional change
• Application: chimney and stovepipe systems for ventilation of combustion gases
• Compatibility: designed to connect with corresponding chimney sections and fittings of matching diameter
• Function: provides a single-piece angled connection to reduce joints and simplify routing

How to use

Install the WaDex 45° elbow as part of the flue assembly by connecting it to adjacent chimney sections or fittings of the same diameter. Ensure mating ends are properly seated and secured according to the chimney system manufacturer’s assembly method, using any required fasteners, seals, or locking features. Position the elbow so the angle directs exhaust gases along the intended route and maintains appropriate clearances from combustible materials. Verify alignment and sealing at every joint to preserve draft and prevent leakage of combustion by-products.

Usage recommendations

Use this flue elbow only with compatible chimney components and within systems that meet local codes and manufacturer guidelines. Confirm the pipe diameter and material compatibility before installation. Periodically inspect joints and clearances, and have the entire chimney system serviced by a qualified technician to ensure safe operation.
