SCHEDULE 80 PVC 90-DEGREE ELBOWThis Charlotte Pipe Schedule 80 PVC 90-degree elbow changes direction in pressure piping systems. The thick-wall Schedule 80 construction handles higher pressures than Schedule 40 fittings, making it suitable for industrial, commercial, and demanding residential applications such as irrigation manifolds, pool plumbing, and chemical transfer lines.
- Size: 3/4" nominal (Slip x Slip socket ends)
- Schedule 80 PVC - thick-wall construction for higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40
- 90-degree bend for direction changes in pressurized pipe runs
- Gray PVC for easy identification as pressure-rated (distinguishes from white Schedule 40)
- Meets ASTM D2467 for socket-type Schedule 80 PVC fittings
- NSF Listed for potable water systems
- Manufacturer part number: PVC 08300 1200HA
Schedule 40/80 compatibility: Schedule 80 fittings accept Schedule 40 pipe of the same nominal size, since the outside diameter is identical between schedules. The difference is wall thickness, which affects internal flow and burst rating but not joint geometry.
Temperature limit: PVC has a working-temperature ceiling around 140 deg F. For hot water lines or higher-temperature service, use CPVC fittings instead.
Installation tip: Use PVC primer (purple) followed by PVC solvent cement per ASTM D2564 - apply to both the socket and the pipe end, push fully home with a quarter-turn twist, and hold for 30 seconds. Allow the joint to reach full pressure-bearing strength per the cement-cure time printed on the can (typically 1-2 hours for small sizes, longer for larger fittings and cooler temperatures).
