American Granby SCH 40 2" PVC 90° Elbow SL x SL

Reliable directional changes are critical in high-flow pool plumbing, especially on main circulation lines where pressure, alignment, and durability matter. The American Granby Schedule 40 2” PVC 90-Degree Elbow (Slip x Slip) is a professional-grade fitting designed to create a precise 90-degree turn while maintaining structural integrity and long-term performance in pool and spa systems.

This elbow is a staple component in residential and light commercial pool plumbing, trusted by pool builders and service technicians for equipment pads, suction lines, return lines, and underground installations. Manufactured specifically for pool environments, it is engineered to handle continuous water flow, chemical exposure, and operating pressures common to modern pool systems.

This is not a general plumbing elbow—it is built for pool circulation systems where reliability is non-negotiable.

Why 2” PVC 90° Elbows Are Essential in Pool Plumbing

Two-inch PVC is commonly used in higher-flow sections of a pool system, including pump suction, filter discharge, and return manifolds. Directional changes in these areas must be strong, accurately sized, and pressure-rated to avoid leaks or premature failure.

The American Granby 2” PVC 90-degree elbow is used to:

• Change direction on main circulation lines

• Route plumbing cleanly around equipment pads

• Connect pumps, filters, heaters, and chlorinators

• Maintain alignment in underground plumbing runs

Using a properly manufactured Schedule 40 elbow ensures consistent flow and long-term system reliability.

Slip x Slip Connections for Permanent Installations

This fitting features Slip x Slip (socket x socket) connections, allowing 2” 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 both exposed and buried installations.

Schedule 40 PVC Built for Pool & Spa Systems

Constructed from rigid Schedule 40 PVC, this elbow is pressure-rated for residential and light commercial pool systems. It is fully compatible with standard 2” 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 and underground exposure

This ensures dependable performance throughout the life of the pool system.

Common Pool & Spa Applications

The American Granby SCH 40 2” PVC 90° Elbow is commonly used for:

• Pump suction and discharge plumbing

• Filter and heater connections

• Pool return line routing

Anywhere a strong, accurate 90-degree turn is required in 2” pool plumbing, this fitting is the correct solution.
