Elbow, 90 Degree, Slip x Slip PVC Schedule 80 3/4" (806-007)

This 3/4" Schedule 80 PVC 90 Degree Elbow (Slip x Slip) provides a right-angle direction change in high-pressure and chemically demanding all-socket PVC piping systems, accepting 3/4" PVC pipe at both socket ends for permanent solvent-cement bonds while delivering the elevated pressure rating, increased wall thickness, and enhanced chemical resistance that distinguish Schedule 80 from Schedule 40 construction throughout the assembly. Constructed in dark gray Schedule 80 PVC, it is the correct elbow specification wherever a 3/4" all-socket PVC system must change direction at conditions that exceed Schedule 40 pressure limits, operate at elevated temperatures, handle aggressive chemical exposures, or require the additional mechanical robustness of Schedule 80 wall thickness at exposed or abrasion-prone direction change points.

Both 3/4" slip socket ends accept 3/4" PVC pipe for permanent solvent-cement bonds, redirecting the pipe run 90 degrees between the inlet and outlet socket axes. The Schedule 80 construction provides approximately double the wall thickness of Schedule 40 at the same nominal pipe size — delivering a pressure rating of approximately 630 psi at 73°F versus the 480 psi rating of the Schedule 40 equivalent — while maintaining the same socket dimensions and solvent-cement compatibility that allow Schedule 80 fittings to be used with either Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 pipe in the same assembly. At 3/4", this elbow is the most widely specified direction change fitting in the 806 series, appearing throughout chemical process distribution assemblies, high-pressure irrigation pump station piping, industrial fluid handling systems, and any Schedule 80 PVC installation where a 3/4" pipe run must change direction at a right angle under conditions that demand the elevated wall thickness and pressure performance of Schedule 80 construction.

Rated to approximately 630 psi at 73°F, this elbow is suited for demanding commercial, industrial, and chemical process service within its pressure class. Its Schedule 80 PVC composition provides excellent resistance to a broad range of acids, bases, salts, chlorinated solutions, and process chemicals — with enhanced resistance at elevated service temperatures where Schedule 40 pressure derating becomes a limiting factor. NSF/ANSI 61 listing confirms suitability for potable water contact, including use in drinking water distribution and treatment systems where Schedule 80 is specified.

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 across the joint surface. Schedule 80 fittings have a thicker socket wall than Schedule 40 — confirm that the correct Schedule 80 solvent cement formulation is used per the cement manufacturer's recommendations for the pipe and fitting schedule combination. Allow adequate cure time before pressurizing the system, and derate pressure ratings for elevated temperatures per published derating curves; the pressure derating curve for Schedule 80 at elevated temperatures is less aggressive than for Schedule 40, confirming its selection advantage in higher-temperature service applications. Derate pressure ratings for elevated temperatures per published derating curves.

Industries & Applications:

• Chemical Process Piping — Provides 90-degree direction changes in 3/4" Schedule 80 PVC chemical distribution and process piping assemblies in water treatment, chemical manufacturing, and industrial fluid handling facilities where the elevated pressure rating and enhanced chemical resistance of Schedule 80 are required at elbow locations throughout the system
• Industrial Process Piping — Redirects 3/4" Schedule 80 PVC process water, cooling water, and chemical feed lines at right-angle turns in manufacturing and water treatment facilities where system design pressures, elevated service temperatures, or mechanical protection requirements exceed Schedule 40 capabilities at direction change points
• Irrigation & Water Distribution — Changes direction on 3/4" Schedule 80 PVC pipe runs at high-pressure pump station assemblies, chemical injection distribution lines, and elevated-pressure zone supply headers in agricultural and municipal irrigation systems where the 630 psi @ 73°F pressure rating is required at elbow locations throughout the Schedule 80 assembly
• Commercial Plumbing — Provides high-pressure right-angle direction changes in 3/4" Schedule 80 PVC exposed supply runs, mechanical room distribution assemblies, and riser piping in commercial building systems where Schedule 80 is specified for elevated pressure service, mechanical protection, or elevated temperature tolerance at direction change points
• Water Treatment & Aquaculture — Used at 90-degree direction change points on 3/4" Schedule 80 chemical feed lines, recirculating system headers, and treatment equipment distribution assemblies where elevated pressure ratings, chemical resistance, or NSF/ANSI 61 compliance in demanding chemical environments are required throughout the all-socket assembly
• HVAC & Mechanical Systems — Redirects 3/4" Schedule 80 PVC pipe runs at high-pressure direction change points on cooling tower chemical feed lines, concentrated chemical distribution headers, and high-pressure mechanical system service lines within the Schedule 80 pressure rating class where elevated wall thickness provides mechanical protection and pressure performance beyond Schedule 40 capabilities
