90 Degree Elbow, Slip x FPT PVC Schedule 40 1" (407-010)

This 1" Schedule 40 PVC 90 Degree Elbow (Slip x FPT) combines a solvent-cement socket inlet with a female NPT-threaded outlet at a right-angle turn — connecting a 1" socket PVC pipe run at the inlet and providing a 1" female-threaded receptacle at the 90-degree outlet for any standard 1" male NPT-threaded component, valve, pump connection, or equipment port. Constructed in white Schedule 40 PVC, it consolidates a direction change, a pipe-run connection, and a socket-to-thread material transition into a single compact fitting body — eliminating the need for a standard Slip x Slip elbow plus a separate female adapter at the same location.

The 1" slip socket inlet accepts 1" PVC pipe for a permanent solvent-cement bond on the upstream pipe run leg, anchoring the fitting into the all-socket distribution assembly at the direction change point. The 1" FPT outlet accepts any standard 1" male NPT-threaded fitting, valve body, pump port, nipple, or equipment connection for a pressure-tight mechanical connection when made up with thread sealant or PTFE tape, redirecting the pipe run 90 degrees from the inlet socket axis while simultaneously transitioning from the cemented socket assembly into the female-threaded receptacle. This Slip x FPT configuration is the correct choice when three conditions must be met simultaneously at the same fitting location — a 1" socket pipe run arriving on the inlet side, a 90-degree direction change required, and a 1" female-threaded receptacle needed at the outlet for a male-threaded downstream component; it should not be confused with the 411-010 (Spigot x FPT, confirmed in this catalog session), which cements a male plain end spigot into a socket fitting hub interior rather than accepting a pipe end in a socket — the 407-010 connects to a pipe run while the 411-010 connects to a fitting hub port; nor with the 406 series (Slip x Slip), which provides a socket outlet for a continuing cemented pipe run rather than a female-threaded receptacle; nor with the 408-010 (FPT x FPT), which requires male pipe ends on both sides without a socket pipe run connection. At 1", this elbow most commonly appears at pump station discharge approaches where a 1" socket pipe run arrives perpendicular to a pump body male-threaded inlet; at valve body male-threaded ports that must receive a socket pipe run at a 90-degree angle; at filter housing male-threaded connections served by a 1" socket supply run turning from a different direction; and in commercial plumbing and irrigation distribution assemblies where a socket pipe run must simultaneously turn and terminate at a male-threaded equipment or component connection in a single compact fitting.

Rated to approximately 450 psi at 73°F (governed by the 1" slip end), this elbow is suited for standard commercial and light industrial water distribution and irrigation service within its pressure class. Its dual ASTM construction — D2466 at the slip end and D2464 at the FPT end — confirms compliance across both connection methods. NSF/ANSI 61 listing confirms suitability for potable water contact.

Apply solvent cement to both the pipe end and the fitting socket per ASTM D2564 procedures on the slip inlet end, inserting the pipe fully and maintaining a quarter-turn during assembly. Plan the FPT outlet direction before cementing the slip inlet joint — the downstream threaded outlet direction is fixed permanently once the slip cement cures and cannot be adjusted after cure. On the 1" FPT outlet, use a quality pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape on the male NPT threads of the mating downstream component before engagement. Avoid over-torquing — PVC threads require hand-tight plus one to two turns. Allow adequate cure time on the cemented joint before pressurizing the system, and derate pressure ratings for elevated temperatures per published derating curves.

Industries & Applications:

• Pump Station Assemblies — Connects a 1" socket discharge or suction pipe run arriving at a 90-degree angle directly to a pump body male-threaded inlet, valve body male-threaded port, or pressure gauge connection in pump station installations where the socket pipe run and the male-threaded pump or valve port are oriented at right angles and a single fitting must accomplish both the direction change and the socket-to-thread transition at the interface
• Irrigation & Water Distribution — Transitions 1" socket supply pipe runs arriving at right angles to 1" male-threaded valve body inlets, filter housing connections, solenoid valve manifold ports, and equipment male-threaded interfaces in agricultural and municipal irrigation systems where the socket run and the threaded component port orientation require a combined direction change and socket-to-thread transition in a single compact fitting body
• Commercial Plumbing — Provides a combined right-angle turn and socket-to-thread transition at 1" male-threaded valve body inlets, equipment female-threaded receptacles, and distribution manifold male-threaded ports in commercial building water distribution systems where a 1" socket pipe run must simultaneously change direction and terminate at a female-threaded receptacle for a downstream male-threaded component
• Industrial Process Piping — Transitions 1" socket process water distribution pipe runs arriving perpendicular to pump inlets, valve bodies, flow meter male-threaded ports, and equipment interfaces in water treatment, chemical processing, and manufacturing facilities where the socket pipe run direction and the threaded component port axis require a combined 90-degree turn and socket-to-thread material transition at the same fitting location
• Water Treatment & Aquaculture — Used at 1" socket pipe run termination points where the pipe arrives perpendicular to a pump inlet, filter housing male-threaded port, or treatment equipment male-threaded connection, requiring a combined right-angle direction change and socket-to-female-thread transition with NSF/ANSI 61 compliance required throughout the assembly
• HVAC & Mechanical Systems — Transitions 1" socket PVC pipe runs arriving at right angles to male-threaded pump connections, valve body inlets, and equipment ports on cooling tower supply assemblies, chilled water distribution systems, and chemically treated water system piping within the Schedule 40 pressure class where a single fitting accomplishes both the 90-degree turn and the socket-to-thread transition at constrained equipment connection points
