90 Degree Elbow, Slip x FPT PVC Schedule 40 2-1/2" (407-025)
The 407-025 is a Schedule 40 PVC 90-degree elbow with a 2-1/2-inch slip (socket) inlet and a 2-1/2-inch female pipe thread (FPT) outlet. The socket end accepts standard 2-1/2" Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 PVC pipe or a spigot-end fitting via solvent cement, while the FPT outlet receives a 2-1/2" male-threaded connection — making this elbow the practical choice wherever a cemented piping run needs to turn 90 degrees and simultaneously transition to a threaded interface for a valve, pump port, equipment connection, or threaded adapter.
The mixed slip-to-FPT configuration is especially useful at equipment terminations, panel penetrations, or service points where the upstream run is solvent-cemented PVC but the terminal connection must be threaded for disassembly, adjustment, or equipment compatibility. Manufactured from rigid, high-impact PVC compound, the 407-025 conforms to ASTM D2466 dimensional standards and is rated for continuous cold-water pressure service. Apply a medium-bodied PVC primer and standard-bodied PVC cement per ASTM D2564 to the socket end; apply PTFE thread tape or an approved pipe thread sealant to any male-threaded fitting before engaging the FPT port.

Industries & Applications:
- Municipal & Commercial Plumbing — Turns a 2-1/2" cemented supply or service run 90 degrees while transitioning to a female threaded outlet for valve connections, equipment tie-ins, or service access points in commercial mechanical systems.
- Water Treatment & Distribution — Used at pump inlets, filter housing ports, and treatment equipment connections where a cemented PVC run must terminate at a threaded interface after a directional change.
- Irrigation & Agricultural Systems — Installed at pump discharge assemblies, pressure regulator stations, and control valve inlets where a 2-1/2" cemented mainline turns and connects to threaded equipment or valve bodies.
- Industrial Process Piping — Provides a combined 90° turn and solvent-to-threaded transition in PVC process lines, supporting maintenance access or equipment connections at corrosion-resistant piping terminations.
- Pool & Spa Plumbing — Transitions 2-1/2" cemented circulation or suction piping through a 90° bend to a threaded pump port, strainer inlet, or equipment manifold connection in high-flow system installations.
- HVAC & Chilled Water Systems — Directs 2-1/2" PVC drainage, condensate, or secondary piping through a 90° change of direction while terminating at a threaded drain valve, cleanout, or equipment port.

Typical Applications
The 2 ½" PVC 90° Elbow is a versatile connector that’s well suited for:
- Residential, commercial, and light industrial plumbing systems
- Irrigation and sprinkler systems in landscaping and agriculture
- Pump hook-ups, pool and pond plumbing, and aquarium filtration systems
- Equipment connections requiring a combination of solvent-welded and threaded joints
Installation & Handling Tips
For the best results, be sure to follow the tips below:
- Slip End: Use PVC primer and solvent cement to create a strong, leak-proof bond.
- FPT End: Apply thread sealant tape or non-petroleum-based pipe dope to prevent leaks. Hand-tighten, then finish with a wrench—avoid overtightening to prevent cracking.
- Allow proper curing time before pressurizing the system.
- Always support piping to reduce mechanical stress on joints.
