Electrofusion Elbow Weba 50 mm, 90° is a polyethylene (PE) pipe fitting designed to create a durable 90° bend in PE piping systems. The fitting integrates an electrofusion heating coil that enables reliable fusion welding of pipe ends, producing a continuous, homogenous joint. Intended for use in potable water, gas distribution, irrigation and buried pipeline networks, this Weba elbow provides a compact solution for directional changes where a robust, leak-resistant connection is required.
Advantages
The integrated electrofusion coil ensures uniform heating and controlled fusion between the fitting and pipe, reducing the risk of weak joints. Manufactured from PE material compatible with PE pipe systems, the elbow delivers chemical resistance and long-term durability in underground and exposed installations. Its 50 mm nominal diameter and 90° geometry offer a standardized connection point for commonly used pipe sizes, allowing simple alignment and installation while minimizing on-site preparation and mechanical stress at the joint.
Suitable for
- Potable water distribution networks
- Low- and medium-pressure gas pipelines where electrofusion fittings are approved
- Irrigation systems and agricultural water routing
- Buried utility pipelines and service connections

How to use
Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and removing any burrs, then clean and scrape the pipe surface according to electrofusion installation practice to expose fresh PE material. Insert the pipe ends fully into the elbow fitting until the correct insertion depth is reached, ensuring alignment and support to prevent movement. Connect a compatible electrofusion control unit to the fitting, set the recommended fusion parameters and initiate the heating cycle. Allow the joint to cool under restraint for the specified cooling time before applying internal pressure or mechanical loads.
Usage recommendations
Use qualified personnel and an electrofusion control unit compatible with the fitting. Follow manufacturer-approved procedures for surface preparation, fusion parameters and cooling times. Store fittings away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures prior to installation.
