Adjustable elbow connectors
Tube fittings
Adjustable elbow connectors take a tube line through 90 degrees, the bend being turned to any direction needed before it is locked. This category covers 77 items for tube ports from 8 L to 42 L as well as 6 S to 38 S.
Unlike a fixed male stud elbow, the adjustable design keeps its chosen orientation whatever depth the thread runs in to. Selection follows tube outside diameter, series, then material: zinc-plated steel as the standard choice, stainless steel 1.4571 against corrosive media, plus bodies delivered without a union nut.
These elbows suit a tube line that has to turn a corner while the bend stays exactly in the plane of the run, as inside crowded hydraulic power units or on machine tools. Against a fixed body, no rebending of the tube is called for, because direction gets set during installation. Sizes from 25 S feed main lines, sizes from 8 L to 12 L serve pilot or measuring circuits.
