When plumbing larger pool circulation lines, space efficiency and flow integrity are critical. Extra couplings and tight layouts can increase restriction, create unnecessary joints, and complicate installations. The American Granby Schedule 40 2” PVC Street Elbow (Spigot x Slip) is designed to eliminate those problems by allowing a direct glue-in connection while still providing a precise 90-degree change in direction.

This street-style elbow is commonly used by pool builders and service professionals to simplify equipment pad layouts, reduce the number of fittings, and maintain strong hydraulic performance. Built specifically for pool and spa circulation systems, it delivers the pressure rating, durability, and chemical resistance required for long-term reliability.

This is not a general plumbing fitting—it is engineered for real-world pool plumbing conditions.


Why Street Elbows Are Used in 2” Pool Plumbing

In 2” pool plumbing, every additional fitting increases friction and adds a potential leak point. Street elbows eliminate the need for an extra coupling by allowing one end of the elbow to glue directly into another fitting.

The American Granby 2” PVC street elbow is used to:

  • Reduce the total number of glue joints

  • Simplify tight equipment pad plumbing

  • Shorten plumbing runs for improved flow

  • Create cleaner, more professional installations

For retrofit work and space-limited pads, street elbows often provide the cleanest solution.


Spigot x Slip Configuration Explained

This fitting features:

  • Spigot (SP) end that inserts directly into the socket of another PVC fitting

  • Slip (SL) end that accepts standard 2” Schedule 40 PVC pipe

The spigot end functions like a short piece of pipe, allowing the elbow to glue directly into valves, tees, unions, or couplings. This reduces overall plumbing length and removes the need for an additional connector.

For pool professionals, this results in:

  • Fewer fittings

  • Less friction loss

  • Faster installations

  • Reduced leak potential


Schedule 40 PVC Built for Pool & Spa Systems

Manufactured from rigid Schedule 40 PVC, this street 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 exposure in outdoor and underground installations

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


Common Pool & Spa Applications

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

  • Equipment pad plumbing where space is limited

  • Pump, filter, heater, and chlorinator connections

  • Suction and return line routing

  • Plumbing repairs and retrofits

  • Underground pool plumbing installations

Anywhere a compact 90-degree turn is required without adding extra fittings, this street elbow is the correct solution.
