Gruvlok Figure 7050LRP Plain End Long Radius 90° Elbow
Gruvlok Figure 7050LRP Plain End Long Radius 90° Elbow
The Gruvlok Figure 7050LRP Plain End Long Radius 90° Elbow is a heavy-duty industrial pipe fitting designed to provide a smooth 90-degree directional change in plain-end piping systems. Combining a long-radius bend with plain-end connections, the Figure 7050LRP provides an efficient solution for commercial, mechanical, industrial, and utility piping applications where gradual flow transitions and mechanical plain-end joining are desired.
Long Radius 90° Elbow for Smoother Flow
The Gruvlok Figure 7050LRP Long Radius 90° Elbow features an extended-radius bend that creates a more gradual change in direction than a short or standard-radius elbow. This long-radius geometry can help reduce turbulence and flow disruption through the directional change, making it particularly valuable in piping systems where efficient fluid movement is an important design consideration.
The gradual bend also provides an effective solution for routing piping around equipment, structural components, and other obstacles.
Plain End Design for Mechanical Connections
The Figure 7050LRP Plain End Elbow features plain ends intended for use with compatible plain-end pipe and appropriately selected plain-end mechanical couplings and gaskets. This configuration eliminates the need to groove the fitting ends and can provide an efficient alternative to welded or threaded connections in suitable applications.
Proper component selection should consider nominal pipe size, pipe outside diameter, operating pressure, temperature, conveyed media, coupling requirements, gasket compatibility, and applicable piping specifications.
