Description

Westlake Pipe & Fittings 407005 0.5″ FPT x SKT 90-Degree Elbow

The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 407005 0.5″ FPT x SKT 90-Degree Elbow is a durable and reliable PVC fitting designed to create a precise 90-degree directional change in 0.5-inch Schedule 40 PVC piping systems. Combining a threaded female pipe thread (FPT) on one end with a slip (SKT) connection on the other, this elbow provides versatile installation options for both threaded and solvent-weld applications. It is ideal for situations where a secure, leak-resistant connection is needed while redirecting flow efficiently.

Manufactured from high-quality Schedule 40 PVC, this elbow offers outstanding resistance to corrosion, chemicals, moisture, and environmental exposure. Unlike metal fittings that can rust, pit, or scale over time, the 407005 maintains structural integrity and leak-free performance over long-term use. This makes it perfect for pool and spa plumbing, irrigation systems, water features, and other residential or light commercial applications where durability and reliability are essential.

The female threaded end (FPT) provides a secure connection to male threaded pipes, valves, or fittings, while the slip socket end (SKT) allows for a solvent-weld connection with standard 0.5-inch PVC pipe. Using PVC primer and solvent cement, the socket connection forms a permanent, watertight bond, ensuring long-lasting performance. The precision-molded design guarantees consistent dimensions and a tight fit, minimizing the risk of leaks and misalignment.

The 90-degree elbow configuration allows fluid to navigate corners and obstacles smoothly, ensuring efficient flow through the piping system. Its internal design provides a smooth flow path, reducing turbulence and pressure loss while maintaining system efficiency. This is especially important for applications such as circulation lines, irrigation mains, or small-scale water distribution systems where pressure and flow consistency are critical.

Despite its rigid and durable construction, the 407005 elbow is lightweight and easy to handle, making installation simpler for professionals and DIY enthusiasts. Its compact size allows for efficient use of space in tight areas while maintaining proper alignment and support for connected piping.

The elbow also features a clean white PVC finish for a professional appearance and easy inspection of solvent-weld joints during installation and maintenance. The fitting meets industry standards for Schedule 40 pressure-rated PVC components, ensuring compatibility with other PVC pipes and fittings commonly used in plumbing systems.

Whether used in new installations, retrofits, or repair projects, the Westlake Pipe & Fittings 407005 0.5″ FPT x SKT 90-Degree Elbow provides dependable performance, efficient flow control, and long-lasting durability. Its combination of threaded and solvent-weld connections makes it a versatile and trusted choice for a variety of PVC plumbing applications.
