The 90° and 45° grooved elbow allows the direction of a pipe to be changed in fire protection networks without field welding, using compatible grooved couplings. It is a ductile iron fitting for UL/FM listed systems and is used in risers, branches, pump rooms, rings and takeoffs where mechanical installation reduces installation time. The 90° elbow is used for tight turns and perpendicular changes; the 45° elbow helps soften offsets, improve alignment and resolve routes with a less abrupt direction change. Unlike a grooved tee or mechanical tee, it does not create a branch: it only redirects the flow. To choose it, nominal diameter, angle, groove profile, available space, coupling type and approval required by the fire protection design must be cross-checked.
We dispatch to Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla and all of Colombia. Request a quote via WhatsApp for 90° or 45° grooved elbows indicating diameter, angle, quantity and delivery city.
It depends on diameter, angle, availability, requested approval and quantity. TECTUL quotes per unit for nationwide dispatch.
The 90° elbow changes direction at a right angle. The 45° elbow creates a smoother offset and is used when the layout allows it.
It is connected to grooved pipe with compatible couplings, checking alignment, gasket, clean grooves and uniform bolt tightening.
The elbow only changes flow direction. The grooved tee allows an additional takeoff or branch to be created in the network.
Yes, when the fitting and couplings meet the listings and approvals required by the system design.

The dimensions, thicknesses, pressures, temperatures and other characteristics stated in this data sheet are theoretical nominal reference values, compiled from publicly available technical sources: international standards (ASME, ASTM, API, MSS, ISO and NTC, depending on the product) and published engineering literature. They are average approximations intended to guide selection, not a certificate of conformity for any given lot.
Actual values may vary due to conditions inherent to the manufacturing process — dimensional and wall-thickness tolerances (in pipe, typically ±12.5%), surface finish and residual stresses from forming or welding — and to factors inherent to the raw material — chemical composition variations within the ranges allowed by the standard, inclusions or heat-to-heat differences. They may also be affected by in-service events not foreseeable at design time: water hammer, vibration, thermal and mechanical fatigue, corrosion and operating overpressures, which can cause the element to fail before its estimated service life.
To know the certified behavior of a specific lot, TECTUL supplies upon request the manufacturer's mill test certificate (MTC) issued per the product standard; for critical applications, laboratory testing of the lot can also be arranged. In the absence of such certification, the data provided here must not be used as the sole criterion in critical or safety applications, or wherever the integrity of the line may compromise the lives of people or property; in such cases, consult our technical team first.
