Elbow, 45 Degree, Slip x Slip PVC Schedule 40 2" (417-020)

Pre-Write Verification — 417-020

• Series: 417 = Schedule 40 PVC 45 Degree Elbow, Slip x Slip — ⚠️ this is the first confirmed 417 series entry in this catalog session — confirm 417 = 45 Degree Slip x Slip Elbow against manufacturer catalog before publishing; confirm series is Schedule 40 PVC and not a different schedule or connection type variant
• Size code 020: 2" — standard single-size code; consistent with all other 020 = 2" entries confirmed throughout this catalog session ✅
• No anomalous prefix or suffix flags; series confirmation as noted above
• Series distinction: 417 = 45 Degree Slip x Slip Elbow — distinct from the 423 series (45 Degree Spigot x Slip Street Elbow, established at 423-020 in the immediately preceding session entry) in inlet connection type only; both produce a 45-degree turn and both are all-solvent-cement; the 417 series requires a pipe section on both sides of the elbow (socket inlet and socket outlet), while the 423 series cements the inlet directly into an upstream socket fitting hub (spigot inlet); also distinct from the 90-degree Slip x Slip Elbow (406 series) in turn angle only ✅
• Series distinction from threaded 45-degree variants: ⚠️ confirm whether a FPT x FPT 45 Degree Elbow series and/or MPT x FPT 45 Degree Street Elbow series exist in the catalog at this size — disambiguation from those series warranted in copy and SEO notes if stocked
• Governing end: Both ends are 2" Slip (socket) — same nominal size, same connection type; no reducing logic applies; 2" Schedule 40 slip rated at approximately 280 psi @ 73°F ⚠️ Flag for verification — confirm 2" Schedule 40 slip 45 degree elbow pressure rating against manufacturer published pressure tables before use in customer-facing content
• ASTM: D2466 (Schedule 40 PVC socket fittings) — both ends slip, single standard applies
• Solvent cement ends present (both slip); 2" is below the 4" threshold — no large-diameter cement guidance needed
• NSF/ANSI 61 listed ⚠️ Flag for verification — confirm NSF/ANSI 61 listing status for this specific product before use in customer-facing content
• Color: White (Schedule 40)
• Note: All-solvent-cement fitting — no threaded ends; 45-degree turn angle distinguishes from the 406 series (90-degree Slip x Slip Elbow); 2" Slip x Slip 45 degree elbow is among the most commonly specified large-diameter socket elbow types in irrigation mainline and commercial plumbing distribution assemblies where gradual directional offsets are preferred over hard 90-degree turns for flow efficiency and spatial routing
• Note: Outlet direction planning — both socket ends must be aligned before cementing; at 45 degrees, downstream pipe run alignment requires careful pre-planning relative to the upstream pipe run direction

Meta Title: 2" Schedule 40 PVC 45 Degree Elbow | Slip x Slip | 417-020

Meta Description: Shop the 2" Schedule 40 PVC 45 Degree Elbow (Slip x Slip, 417-020). White, ASTM D2466, NSF/ANSI 61 listed. Rated to 280 psi @ 73°F. Gentle 45-degree directional offset for 2" all-socket PVC systems. Bulk pricing for contractors.

Product Description: This 2" Schedule 40 PVC 45 Degree Elbow (Slip x Slip) provides a gentle all solvent-cement directional offset for 2" socket PVC piping systems, redirecting a pipe run 45 degrees from its original axis while maintaining full-diameter flow capacity through both socket ends. Constructed in white Schedule 40 PVC, it offers reliable performance in commercial plumbing, irrigation, pump station assemblies, and light industrial applications where a gradual 45-degree directional change is required along an all-socket pipe run — producing a less abrupt transition than a 90-degree elbow and preserving higher flow velocity through the fitting body.

Both slip socket ends accept 2" PVC pipe for permanent solvent-cement bonds, redirecting the pipe run 45 degrees between the inlet and outlet socket axes. This standard Slip x Slip configuration requires a pipe section on both the upstream and downstream sides of the fitting, making it the appropriate choice wherever the direction change occurs along a pipe run rather than immediately at a socket fitting hub. When a 45-degree offset must originate directly at an existing socket fitting hub without an intermediate pipe section, the 423 series (45 Degree Spigot x Slip Street Elbow, established at 423-020 in this catalog session) is the more compact alternative — the 417 series is correct when the elbow is positioned between two pipe sections along the run. At 2", the 45-degree slip elbow is among the most frequently specified large-diameter all-socket elbows in irrigation mainline distribution systems, pump station discharge assemblies, and commercial plumbing distribution headers where gradual directional offsets around grade changes, structural elements, and equipment layouts are preferred over hard 90-degree turns for both flow efficiency and spatial routing flexibility. When combined in pairs, two 45-degree elbows with an intermediate pipe section produce an offset assembly that transitions a pipe run laterally without changing its overall direction — a configuration widely used in pump station and distribution manifold assemblies at 2" mainline sizes.

Rated to approximately 280 psi at 73°F, this elbow is suited for standard commercial and light industrial pressure service. Its PVC composition provides excellent resistance to corrosion, scale, chlorinated water, and a broad range of chemical exposures, making it a reliable long-term alternative to metal fittings in moisture-prone or chemically active environments. NSF/ANSI 61 listing confirms suitability for potable water contact.

Apply solvent cement to both the pipe end and fitting socket at each port per ASTM D2564 procedures, using a primer appropriate for the pipe and fitting schedule. Insert pipe fully into each socket and maintain a quarter-turn during assembly for even cement distribution. Because the 45-degree angle establishes the downstream pipe run direction diagonally relative to the inlet axis, plan both the inlet and outlet pipe run alignments before cementing either joint — the 45-degree offset direction is fixed permanently once cement cures, and at 2" the cost of a mis-aligned assembly is significant. When constructing a lateral offset with two 45-degree elbows, confirm the intermediate pipe section length and both elbow orientations before cementing any joint in the assembly. Allow adequate cure time before pressurizing the system, and derate pressure ratings for elevated temperatures per published derating curves.

Industries & Applications:

• Irrigation & Water Distribution — Redirects 2" PVC socket mainline distribution runs around grade changes, structural obstructions, and equipment layouts with a gradual 45-degree offset in agricultural and municipal irrigation systems where all-socket construction is maintained throughout and flow efficiency through the elbow body is a design consideration at large mainline diameters; commonly used in pairs to create lateral offset assemblies along 2" mainline runs
• Pump Station Assemblies — Produces gradual 45-degree directional changes on 2" pump discharge headers, suction line approaches, and bypass line routing in pump station installations where angled pipe run transitions around pump bodies, valve clusters, and structural panels are required along all-socket Schedule 40 PVC assemblies where a gentler elbow angle reduces turbulence at the fitting compared to a 90-degree turn
• Commercial Plumbing — Provides gradual 45-degree offsets at wall transitions, structural penetrations, and equipment connection approaches in 2" socket PVC distribution systems in commercial buildings where all-socket construction is specified and diagonal routing requirements preclude the use of a 90-degree elbow at the direction change location
• Industrial Process Piping — Redirects 2" socket process water distribution headers, equipment feed lines, and service manifold approach runs with a gradual 45-degree offset in water treatment, chemical processing, and manufacturing facilities where flow-efficient directional changes along all-cemented Schedule 40 PVC assemblies are required at large-diameter pipe routing constraints
• Water Treatment & Aquaculture — Used at filter manifold approach connections, pump suction line offsets, and recirculating system header routing changes where a 2" socket pipe run must change direction gradually at a 45-degree offset with NSF/ANSI 61 compliance required throughout the all-socket assembly
• HVAC & Mechanical Systems — Produces gradual 45-degree directional offsets on 2" cooling tower supply headers, chilled water distribution mains, and chemically treated water system pipe runs within the Schedule 40 pressure class where diagonal routing around mechanical equipment, structural elements, and ceiling plenum constraints requires a gentler elbow angle than a standard 90-degree elbow
