This Spears 807-CBR series transition elbow fitting has brass female NPT threads on one end and a schedule 80 CPVC socket opening on the other, and is suitable for connecting plastic and metal pipes at a 90-degree angle to change the direction of flow between pipes. The National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads create a tighter seal than straight threads, and the socket end connects to pipes with a smooth bore for enhanced flow. This transition fitting has a medium gray CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) for chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, compatibility with plastic pipes, and better resistance to high temperatures and pressures than PVC (polyvinyl chloride), making it suitable for both hot and cold water pressure distribution systems in residential and commercial applications. It has brass threads for strength, resistance to corrosion, and compatibility with metal pipes, and an internal O-ring seal that compensates for expansion and contraction differences between materials. It has a maximum operating temperature of 200 degrees F and meets ASTM International D1784 standards for quality assurance. This CPVC and brass transition elbow fitting is suitable for connecting metal and plastic pipes for transferring liquids other than drinking water.

Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
