- Rated for -20°F to 140°F operating temperatures
Product Purpose
This PVC 45 degree elbow hub connects 6 inch schedule 40 pipe in drainage systems. It suits plumbers and contractors building gravity flow waste lines where a directional change is required. The socket hub design accepts pipe with a 6 5/8 inch outside diameter for a secure solvent weld joint.
Critical Specification
The fitting carries a schedule 40 pressure rating and is rated for gravity flow maximum operating pressure only. It operates between -20 degrees and 140 degrees Fahrenheit. This temperature and pressure envelope determines whether the elbow meets the demands of a specific drainage installation.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Under continuous gravity flow the white PVC body resists corrosion and chemical attack from typical waste streams. The solvent weld sockets maintain joint integrity without mechanical fasteners that could loosen over time. The material retains its shape and sealing performance across the full rated temperature range.

Questions about this item
How does the 45 degree angle change the flow direction in a 6 inch drain line?
The elbow turns the pipe run by 45 degrees, letting the line change direction smoothly while keeping the same 6 inch diameter throughout the fitting.
What does the Schedule 40 rating mean for pressure handling in this PVC elbow?
Schedule 40 PVC is rated for gravity flow only, with a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F and no pressure rating above atmospheric head.
What size socket opening do I need on the pipe to fit this hub elbow?
The hub accepts pipe with a 6 5/8 inch outside diameter, so the pipe must be 6 inch nominal Schedule 40 PVC for a proper socket fit.
