American Granby SCH 40 1" PVC 90° Elbow SL x SL

Accurate, leak-free directional changes are essential in pool plumbing, especially on mid-size auxiliary lines where space and reliability matter. The American Granby Schedule 40 1” PVC 90-Degree Elbow (Slip x Slip) is a professional-grade fitting designed to create a clean 90-degree turn in 1” pool and spa plumbing systems.

This elbow is commonly used by pool builders and service technicians for chemical feed lines, booster pump plumbing, automation systems, heater bypasses, and auxiliary circulation lines. Manufactured specifically for pool and spa environments, it is built to handle continuous water flow, chemical exposure, and the operating pressures found in residential and light commercial pool systems.

This is not a general plumbing elbow—it is intended for real pool circulation and support plumbing applications.

Why 1” PVC Elbows Matter in Pool Systems

One-inch plumbing is frequently used in pool systems to support secondary functions that are critical to proper operation. Using correctly sized, pressure-rated fittings ensures long-term reliability and prevents leaks or alignment issues.

The American Granby 1” PVC 90-degree elbow is used to:

• Change pipe direction in compact plumbing layouts

• Route chemical feeders and controllers

• Connect auxiliary pumps and equipment

• Maintain clean, serviceable equipment pads

Proper fittings reduce installation issues and improve long-term serviceability.

Slip x Slip Connections for Permanent Pool Plumbing

This fitting features Slip x Slip (socket x socket) connections, allowing 1” Schedule 40 PVC pipe to be solvent-welded directly into both ends of the elbow.

Slip connections provide:

• Strong, permanent joints

• Smooth internal flow paths

• Reliable, leak-resistant performance when installed correctly

Once cemented, the elbow becomes a fixed part of the plumbing system, suitable for exposed or underground installations.

Schedule 40 PVC Built for Pool & Spa Use

Manufactured from rigid Schedule 40 PVC, this elbow is pressure-rated for pool and spa operating conditions. It is fully compatible with standard 1” Schedule 40 PVC pipe used throughout pool plumbing.

The material resists:

• Chlorinated and chemically treated water

• Temperature fluctuations

• Cracking and deformation under pressure

• Long-term outdoor exposure

This ensures dependable performance season after season.
