This SCH40 45° DGR Belled PVC Conduit Elbow is a premium electrical conduit fitting designed for reliable direction changes in rigid PVC conduit systems. Constructed from high-grade rigid PVC and certified to UL651, NEMA TC-2, and ASTM D1784-20 standards, it delivers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and fire safety for both underground and above-ground electrical installations.
2. Material & Performance Features
Material: Rigid PVC (tested to ASTM D1784-20), engineered for long-term performance.
Corrosion Resistance: Inherently resistant to rust, chemicals, and soil corrosion, ideal for direct burial or exposed applications.
Impact Resistance: Robust wall construction withstands mechanical stress, impacts, and environmental wear.
Fire Safety: Self-extinguishing and fire-retardant properties, meeting strict electrical safety requirements.
Smooth Surface: Uniform smooth interior and exterior finish to minimize wire friction during pulling and prevent debris accumulation.
3. Design & Installation Advantages
45° Bend Angle: Precisely formed 45° angle to smoothly redirect conduit runs while maintaining wire integrity and reducing installation stress.
Belled End Design: Integrated belled end allows for simple, secure solvent-weld connections, eliminating the need for additional couplings and speeding up on-site installation.
Standard & Custom Lengths: Available in standard 10ft/20ft lengths (with or without belled ends); custom lengths can be manufactured to meet project-specific requirements.
Compatibility: Fully compatible with SCH40 rigid PVC conduits and fittings, ensuring seamless integration into existing or new electrical systems.
4. Compliance & Certifications
ETL Listed: Certified to UL651 standards, verifying compliance with North American electrical safety requirements.
NEMA TC-2 Compliant: Meets the performance and dimensional standards set by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association.
ASTM D1784-20: Rigid PVC material tested and certified for physical and chemical properties.
5. Application Scenarios
Underground Installations: Direct burial in soil for residential, commercial, and industrial electrical distribution.
Above-Ground Installations: Exposed or concealed conduit runs in buildings, utility poles, and infrastructure projects.
Suitable Environments: Ideal for wet locations, corrosive environments (e.g., chemical plants, agricultural facilities), and general electrical wiring systems.
