Pipe bending
The elbow (also called elbow pipe) is a key fitting used to change the direction of fluid flow in a piping system. It can turn the pipe from one direction to another and is often used to connect different parts of a piping system or change the direction of the pipe layout. The main function of the elbow is to achieve the turning of the pipe, avoid the waste of space in the straight pipe layout, and ensure the smooth flow of the fluid in the pipe. The elbow is generally classified according to parameters such as the bending angle, radius, material and caliber. Common elbow angles include 45°, 90°, 180°, etc. Pipe elbows are widely used in various types of pipeline systems such as petroleum, chemical, electric power, construction, water supply, and drainage.

1. Product features:
Change the flow direction of the pipeline:
The elbow can flexibly guide the pipeline fluid from one direction to another, which is suitable for various complex pipeline layouts, can save space and avoid unnecessary equipment installation.
Multiple angles:
Common elbow angles are 45°, 90°, 180°, etc. You can choose different angles according to the design requirements of the pipeline system to adapt to the changes in the flow direction of the pipeline fluid.
Multiple radii:
The radius of the elbow is generally divided into standard elbows and long radius elbows. Long radius elbows can effectively reduce the resistance in fluid flow and are suitable for pipeline systems that require large flow and low pressure loss.
High strength and pressure resistance:
The elbow is usually made of high-strength materials, has good pressure resistance, can withstand high pressure and high temperature conditions, and is suitable for complex industrial pipeline systems.
Strong adaptability:
The elbow can provide different materials (such as stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, plastic, etc.), different calibers, different pressure levels and different connection methods (such as welding, flanges, threads, etc.) according to the actual needs of the pipeline to meet the requirements of various working environments.
Fluid flow optimization:
Bends can optimize fluid flow, reduce friction resistance of fluid in pipes, and reduce energy consumption through reasonably designed bending angles and radii.
