PVC Elbow 4 Inch in Kenya | Sparks Plumbing

The PVC elbow 4 inch turns a 4 inch PVC pipe run around a corner. This size suits soil and sewer lines from toilets, and main building drains.

Both sockets take 4 inch PVC pipe bonded with solvent cement. As a result, the finished joint is permanent and does not rust.

What is a PVC elbow 4 inch?

A PVC elbow is a plastic fitting that turns a PVC pipe run, usually through 90 degrees. Pipes push into its two sockets and are bonded with solvent cement.

Elbows route drainage and water lines around walls and corners. Because PVC does not rust, the elbow keeps a clean bore for years.

Key terms explained

PVC: Polyvinyl chloride, a rigid plastic used for pipes. It does not rust and is light to handle.
uPVC: Unplasticized PVC. It has no softening additives, so it stays rigid and strong. Most PVC pipe is uPVC.
Solvent cement: A PVC glue that softens the pipe and fitting surfaces so they fuse into one piece as it cures.
Pressure class: The working pressure a PVC pressure pipe is rated for. Drainage pipe has a lower rating than pressure pipe.
Long radius bend: A gentle bend that drains better than a sharp elbow and is used on soil lines.
