PPR Male Adapter Elbow 20mm x 3/4 Inch Threaded Fitting

PPR Male Adapter Elbow

The PPR Male Adapter Elbow provides a high-integrity transition between Polypropylene Random Copolymer pipework and standard 3/4-inch threaded metal components. This fitting utilizes a 20mm socket for heat fusion welding and a precision-machined male thread for mechanical connections. It handles high-pressure hot and cold water distribution systems in residential and commercial plumbing projects.

Built for the Job

Plumbers and site supervisors specify this 90-degree adapter when transitioning from a main PPR run to threaded valves, taps, or pumps. The brass-reinforced thread ensures a leak-proof seal that resists stripping under torque. It withstands the thermal expansion cycles common in solar water heating loops and boiler feed lines. The internal bore remains smooth to prevent lime-scale buildup and maintain flow velocity over long-term operation.

• Connecting 20mm PPR pipework to 3/4-inch female threaded brass valves or manifolds.

• Creating secure termination points for sanitary fixtures in high-pressure water systems.

• Adapting plastic piping to existing galvanized or copper threaded infrastructure.

Product Highlights

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Ensure the PPR welding machine reaches 260°C before attempting the fusion joint on the 20mm socket.

• Apply PTFE tape or appropriate pipe sealant to the 3/4-inch male threads before connecting to female fittings.

• Avoid over-tightening the threaded end to prevent stress cracking in the surrounding plastic housing.

• Store these components away from direct UV exposure to maintain the structural integrity of the polymer body.
