45Deg LR 24” SCH40 Stainless Steel Pipe Elbow
The function of a 45 degree elbow is the same as a 90 degree elbow, but the measurement of dimensions is different to that of the 90 degree elbow.Compared to 90 degree elbow, 45 degree elbow produces less friction, and with the lower pressure.
45Deg LR elbow is second common use after 90 degree elbow. 24” SCH40 Stainless Steel Pipe Elbow is widely used in chemical industry, food, water supply facilities. Welded elbows are made of steel plate, so they are not seamless steel elbows. The steel plate is pressed into the shape of a bend with a die, and then the weld is welded into a finished steel bend. This is the old production method of elbow. In recent years, the small size elbow is almost all made of steel pipe. For example, for large elbow sizes, it is very difficult to produce more than 36 “outside diameters from steel pipe. So it’s usually made from the elbow. Steel plate, press steel plate into half elbow shape, and weld the two halves together. Since the elbow is welded to its body, inspection of the welded joint is necessary. We usually use x – ray inspection as a non – destructive test.

45 degree elbow VS 90 degree elbow
- The function of a 45 Degree Long Radius Elbow is same as 90 degrees long and short elbow, but the measurement and dimensions are different to that of a 90 degree long and the short elbow.
- The radius of both the 45 degree and 90 Degree long and short elbow is the same however, the center to face dimension is not equivalent due to the smaller degree of bend.
- Compared with 90 degree elbow, 45 degree elbow produces less friction and lower pressure.
