Metal Long Radius Elbow
The Metal Long Radius (LR) Elbow is a pipe fitting designed to change the flow direction in piping systems, typically by 45° or 90°, with a larger centerline radius (1.5D) compared to short radius elbows. The longer bend reduces friction, minimizes pressure drop, and ensures smoother fluid or gas flow. Manufactured from high-quality metals such as stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, brass, or cast iron, the long radius elbow is widely used in industries where efficiency, durability, and flow optimization are critical.
Key Features of Metal Long Radius Elbow
- Smooth Flow Transition: Longer radius minimizes turbulence and pressure loss.
- Durable Construction: Built from strong metals for long service life.
- Corrosion Resistance: Suitable for harsh and corrosive environments.
- High Accuracy: Designed for precise 45° or 90° directional changes.
- Multiple End Options: Available in butt weld, socket weld, threaded, and flanged ends.
- Wide Size Range: Fits small, medium, and large diameter pipes.
- Standards Compliance: Manufactured according to ASME, ASTM, DIN, and ISO standards.
