45 degree angle pipe fitting is a pipe fitting used to change the direction of a pipe, with an angle of 45 degrees. This type of pipe fitting plays an important role in the pipeline system, especially when it is necessary to change the direction of the pipeline or connect two pipelines in different directions. 45 degree angle pipe fitting is usually used at the joints of the main pipeline and the branch pipe to achieve the change in the direction of the pipeline. They can be connected to the pipe in a variety of ways, including but not limited to flange connection, hot melt connection, electric fusion connection, threaded connection, and socket connection.
Function
1. It can play a steering role. In the pipeline system, when the flow direction of the pipeline needs to be changed but the original pipeline layout is not desired to be disturbed, the 45 degree angle pipe fitting can come in handy to allow the fluid to change the flow direction when flowing through the pipeline without affecting the normal operation of the pipeline, thereby making the entire pipeline system more flexible and convenient.
2. It can be used to connect pipes of different specifications. In actual projects, the specifications and diameters of pipes are often different, and connectors are required to connect pipes of different specifications. The design of the 45 degree angle pipe fitting with different diameters enables it to connect two pipes of different specifications, thereby achieving the connection of the pipeline system.
3. It can also be used to control the flow rate. In some cases, the fluid needs to be adjusted. By changing the pipe angle to control the fluid flow rate, the flow rate can be adjusted.
4. 45 degree angle pipe fitting can also be used to reduce the stress of the pipeline. In the pipeline system, due to the influence of factors such as thermal expansion and contraction, vibration, etc., the pipeline generates stress, and long-term accumulation may cause the pipeline to fail. The design of 45 degree angle pipe fitting enables it to change the flow direction of the fluid, thereby reducing the stress inside the pipeline.
How to choose the right 45 degree angle pipe fitting?
1. Size specification: Make sure the diameter of the selected pipe matches the diameter of the pipeline system to ensure smooth water flow and effective connection. Common size specifications include different specifications with diameters ranging from 20mm to 160mm, which are usually matched with the standard water pipe diameter for easy installation and connection
2. Connection method: There are many ways to connect the 45-degree elbow to the pipe, including flange connection, hot melt connection, electric fusion connection, threaded connection and socket connection. Choose the appropriate connection method according to the specific requirements of the pipeline system.
3. Material: The material of 45 45-degree angle pipe fitting can be polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), etc. When choosing, you need to consider the specific working environment and chemical compatibility of the pipeline system.
4. Pressure bearing capacity and working temperature: Make sure that the pressure-bearing capacity of the selected pipe fittings meets the requirements of the pipeline system and can operate normally within the operating temperature range of the system. Different materials have different pressure bearing capacities and working temperature ranges, and they need to be selected according to the specific conditions of the pipeline system.
5. Layout and angle: Consider the specific position and angle where the pipe fittings need to be connected, and choose the appropriate elbow size and bending angle to ensure that the layout of the pipeline system is reasonable, beautiful and functional.
6. Brand and quality: Choose plastic 45-degree angle pipe fittings from well-known brands, and ensure that their quality is reliable and meets relevant standards. High-quality pipe fittings have better durability and stability, which can ensure the long-term normal operation of the pipeline system.
