87°30' PVC drainage elbow, ø 32 mm, female-female, for gluing – FITT
87°30' PVC elbow, ø 32 mm, for gluing, for drainage
This grey PVC elbow allows you to change direction in a ø 32 mm drainage system. It forms an angle of 87°30', the standard angle for drainage elbows, which provides the slight gradient required for water to flow freely.
Both ends are female sockets for gluing: the ø 32 mm PVC pipe fits directly into each side of the elbow and is then bonded using PVC adhesive.
Injection-moulded from PVC-U (unplasticised PVC), the standard material for non-pressurised drainage, it is suitable for waste water, rainwater and ventilation, whether installed above ground or underground.
Sold individually, this is the essential fitting for your small plumbing jobs and drainage repairs. Also available in packs of 4.
Description
A reliable drain elbow for your plumbing work
The 87°30' elbow is the most commonly used fitting for turning a drain at a right angle. Its slightly open angle, rather than a sharp 90°, maintains the pipe’s gradient and facilitates water flow.
Diameter 32 mm
It connects to PVC drain pipework with an external diameter of 32 mm. This diameter is commonly used for small drains, such as those from a washbasin or a hand-wash basin.
Double female socket for gluing
Both sides of the elbow are female: the pipe fits inside each socket. No additional sleeve is required; the connection is made directly between the pipe and the elbow.
Injection-moulded PVC-U
PVC-U (unplasticised polyvinyl chloride) is the most widely used thermoplastic for non-pressurised drainage systems. The fittings are injection-moulded and the main components have been awarded AFNOR NF certification for drainage applications.
Applications
- Wastewater drainage.
- Rainwater drainage.
- Ventilation in buildings.
- Overhead or buried installation.
Installation
Preparation
Cut the pipe at a right angle, deburr it, then clean the outside of the pipe and the inside of the socket with a PVC cleaner.
Bonding
Apply PVC adhesive to the pipe and inside the socket, push the pipe all the way into the socket without twisting it, then hold it in place for a few seconds. Allow the adhesive to set for the time specified on the packaging before running water through it.
ℹ️ Good to know
This elbow is designed for drainage, i.e. non-pressurised use. For a pressurised water supply or a swimming pool circuit, use pressurised PVC fittings.
⭐ Tip from the team
Before gluing, carry out a dry fit of your entire drainage system and mark the orientation of each elbow with a pencil: once glued, a fitting cannot be rotated.
