Solvent Weld 90° Conversion Bend

Solvent Weld 90° Conversion Bend

Save space and reduce joints with our Solvent Weld 90° Conversion Bend. Unlike standard double-socket elbows, this “street” style bend features one male spigot end and one female socket, allowing you to connect directly into another fitting or a pipe end for a compact, professional finish.

  • Space-Saving Design: Perfect for tight configurations under sinks or behind vanity units where a standard coupling won’t fit.

  • Direct Integration: Eliminates the need for short “bridge” pieces of pipe between two fittings.

  • Permanent Chemical Bond: Engineered for use with solvent cement to create a unified, leak-proof joint that lasts a lifetime.

Description

What is a Solvent Weld 90° Conversion Bend?

A solvent weld 90° conversion bend (also known as a “Spigot-Socket” or “Street” elbow) is a specialized plumbing fitting. While a standard elbow has two female openings, this conversion bend features one male end (the size of the pipe) and one female socket. This allows the fitting to be inserted directly into the socket of another component—such as a Tee-junction or an Access Plug—changing the direction of the run by 90 degrees without requiring an intermediate length of pipe.

Why Use a Conversion Bend Over a Standard Elbow?

At ECO HEAT SHOP, we recommend the 90-degree conversion bend for complex pipework layouts. By removing the need for extra couplings and short pipe offcuts, you significantly reduce the number of potential leak points in your system. This “knuckle” style profile is the industry standard for tidy, high-performance drainage in restricted spaces like floor voids or kitchen cabinetry.

Engineered for High-Temperature Waste

Our conversion bends are manufactured from high-impact ABS/PVC-U. This material is specifically chosen for its rigidity and its ability to handle boiling water discharge (up to 90°C) from domestic appliances without warping. The internal bore is precision-molded to ensure a smooth, snag-free surface that prevents the buildup of hair, grease, and food debris.
