WAVIN plumbing elbow 50 mm 15° in grey, model 3060341211

WAVIN 50 mm 15° plumbing elbow in grey is a pipe fitting designed to alter the direction of a 50 mm drainage or waste run by 15 degrees. Manufactured for compatibility with standard 50 mm pipes, the elbow provides a small angular deviation where precise alignment is required in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Its grey finish and compact profile make it suitable for visible and concealed installations in drainage stacks, branch connections and appliance outlets.

Advantages

The elbow offers a controlled, shallow deflection of the pipe run that helps to fine-tune line alignment without creating excessive flow resistance. Its geometry is optimized to maintain smooth internal flow for drainage applications and to minimise the risk of blockages. The fitting’s material and factory tolerances ensure consistent fit and reliable joints with compatible 50 mm components.

Suitable for

• Adjusting direction in 50 mm drainage and waste systems
• Connecting appliance outlets (sinks, washing machines, dishwashers) to drainage lines
• Tuning alignment in concealed or exposed plumbing runs
• Small corrective angle changes in renovation and new installation projects

Key specifications

• Nominal pipe size: 50 mm
• Angle: 15°
• Color: grey
• Function: drainage/waste elbow for slight directional change
• Compatibility: designed for use with standard 50 mm drainage pipe systems

How to use

Prepare the mating pipe ends by ensuring they are clean and cut square. Insert the pipe fully into the socket or follow the manufacturer’s recommended jointing method for the system in use. Verify alignment and support adjacent pipe runs to prevent undue stress on the joint. After installation, perform a leak test in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and practices.

Usage recommendations

Use this 15° elbow when only a minor change of direction is required to achieve correct pipe alignment. Avoid combining multiple small-angle fittings into runs where a single larger-radius fitting would provide better hydraulic performance. Follow local building and plumbing regulations for material suitability and jointing methods.
